GO-5000M-PGE / GO-5000C-PGE 8.1.1.2 Multi Frames In this mode, the AcquisitionStart command captures the number of frames which are specified by AcquisitionFrameCount. If JAI_PIV is configured, it is necessary to set an even number. ◆ Normal multi-frame operation 1) AcquisitionStart command is input 2) AcquisitionTriggerWait becomes effective 3) AcquisitionActive becomes “TRUE”(accepts capture)
8.1.1.3 Continuous In this mode, when the AcquisitionStart command is set, the image is continuously output at the current frame rate. This is the default setting for the GO-5000M-PGE and GO-5000C-PGE. ◆ Normal continuous operation 1) AcquisitionStart command is input 2) AcquisitionTriggerWait becomes effective 3) AcquisitionActive becomes “TRUE”...
GO-5000M-PGE / GO-5000C-PGE 8.1.4 Acquisition frame rate With Trigger OFF (free running mode – see section 7.2.1), the default frame rate of the camera is based on the specified ROI.

GO-5000M-PGE / GO-5000C-PGE 8.4. Normal continuous operation (Timed Exposure Mode/Trigger Mode OFF) This is used for applications which do not require triggering. Primary settings to use this mode Trigger Mode: Off 8.5. Timed mode This mode allows a single image frame to be captured with a preset exposure time by using the external trigger.
GO-5000M-PGE / GO-5000C-PGE 8.6. Trigger width mode In this mode, the exposure time is equal to the trigger pulse width. Accordingly, longer exposure times are supported. Additional settings determine if the trigger pulse can be accepted during the exposure period.
GO-5000M-PGE / GO-5000C-PGE 8.7. RCT mode Until the trigger is input, the camera operates continuously. At this moment, the video signal, FVAL and LVAL are output but DVAL is not output. When the trigger is input, the fast dump is activated to read out the electronic charge very quickly, after which the accumulation and the readout are performed.
GO-5000M-PGE / GO-5000C-PGE 8.8. Sequence ROI Trigger This mode allows the user to define a preset sequence of up to 10 images, each with its own ROI, exposure time and gain values. Primary settings to use this mode Exposure Mode: Timed...

GO-5000M-PGE / GO-5000C-PGE 9.3.3 LUT value This is the “adjusted” or “output” pixel value for a given LUT index. It has a range of 0 to 4095 (12-bit) and is automatically scaled to the bit depth of the current operating mode (8-bit, 10-bit, or 12-bit).
GO-5000M-PGE / GO-5000C-PGE 9.5. Shading Correction This function compensates for shading (non-uniformity) caused by the lens or the light source used. This compensation can be performed even if shading issues are not symmetrical in horizontal and/or vertical directions. There are two methods of correction.
GO-5000M-PGE / GO-5000C-PGE 9.6. Blemish compensation The GO-5000-PGE has a blemish compensation circuit. This function compensates blemishes on the CMOS sensor (typically pixels with extremely high response or extremely low response). This applies to both monochrome and color versions. Pixels that fulfill the blemish criteria can be compensated...
Please note that ALC function is available only in continuous mode, as well as RCT mode. HDR (High Dynamic Range) (GO-5000M-PGE only) HDR sensing mode can be set when HDR Mode is set to ON while Exposure Mode is Timed.
