News ARTICLE How To Use The Working Mode Settings In Industrial Cameras Industrial cameras can be classified into line scan cameras and area scan cameras based on the structural characteristics of their sensors. The following is a brief introduction to the working modes of line scan cameras and area scan cameras. 1. Line Scan Camera Operating Modes: 1-1. Fixed Line Scan Rate Continuous Mode a. Fixed line rate b. The target object moves at a constant speed c. The line scan rate depends on the frequency of the line synchronization signal 1-2. Variable Line Scan Speed Trigger Mode a. Line trigger b. Target object speed is variable c. Line scan speed depends on the duration of the external trigger pulse 1-3. Variable line scan speed and variable frame size mode a. Line trigger + Frame trigger b. Target object's speed and size are variable c. Line scan speed depends on the external trigger pulse duration 2. Operating Modes of Area Scan Cameras 2-1. Continuous Mode a. Exposure time does not exceed transmission time b. Frame rate remains constant and independent of exposure time c. Internal exposure control 2-2. Pseudo-continuous mode a. Exposure time can exceed transmission time b. Frame rate equals the reciprocal of (exposure + transmission) time c. Used when transmitting large amounts of data 2-3. Trigger Modes a. Internal Exposure Control b. External Trigger c. Image Acquisition After a Delay 2-4. Asynchronous Reset Mode a. Requires asynchronous operation mode b. Obtains the current image without delay c. The acquisition card sends the exposure signal to the camera. 2-5. Programmable Control Modes a. External Exposure Control b. Camera-Controlled Delay Time c. Programmable Exposure Time Control 2-6. Long-duration integration mode a. External or internal exposure control b. Exposure time is longer than transmission time c. Equivalent to multi-image accumulation, increasing brightness; commonly used in gel and darkroom operations. 2025-11-27 10:09:18 << Previous Page Next Page>> ARTICLE Press HOT ARTICLE (LuxMV)AOI Applications Light L LuxMV SWIR Light Applications New Product For Concave-Convex Condenser Lens For Mounting On 4 Generation High Uniformity L x ABOUT US LuxMV (Lighting & Tech Specialist) is a leading organization in developing and manufacturing machine vision lights for the advanced lighting industry.

How to use the working mode settings in industrial cameras
Which hardware and inspection parameters apply to this note?
Open the series named below, then send the part.
| Reference Item | Specification / Action |
|---|---|
| Document Topic | How to use the working mode settings in industrial cameras |
| Related LuxMV Hardware | Browse Machine Vision Lighting Catalog → |
| Validation Step | Verify working distance, field of view, exposure time, and sample batch variation before line release. |
What questions should be confirmed for FAQ and project validation?
Can this article determine a final lighting specification for my project?
No. Use the article as engineering context, then validate the light model, camera, lens, working distance, line speed, and production conditions with the actual inspection target.
How can I request sample evaluation units, 3D CAD files, or laboratory testing?
Contact the LuxMV engineering team with your part material, defect dimension, field of view, and working distance to discuss sample testing, evaluation unit options, and 2D/3D drawings.
