6.7.3 Synchronous operation without shutter
Without electronic shutter the exposure time is 1 / frame rate.
6.7.4 Synchronous operation with shutter
In the sensor is implemented a freeze frame shutter, which allows to reduce the exposure time in steps
of one line. The minimum value of the exposure time is the duration of 2 line periods, which is deter-
mined by the value of r2 (min. 001h).

6.7.5 External synchronisation with synchronous exposure
MC132x cameras can be synchronized to an external signal that is input on the EXP (TRIG) signal. The
strobe output signal of a MC132x “master camera” can be used for that purpose.
See timing diagram:
Synchronous exposure with external synchronisation via TRIG
The cameras frame rate must be set to a frequency slightly higher than the maximum frequency of the
synchronization signal. The minimum frequency should be higher than 30Hz.
Command: :rf<0|1>
<0> ... deselect external sync signal
<1> ... select external sync signal
Response: none
Make sure that a sync signal is present on EXP/CC1 before this command is issued or the “trigger on
CC1” button is pressed on the MC13xx camera configuration tool.
The polarity of the sync signal can be selected with the _Polarity_of_EXP-signal
