When selecting “Off” at “Exposure Mode” under “Acquisition Control” under “Remote Device”, expousre time that is keep maximum frame rate, set automatically.
The frame rate becomes high (fast) when reducing image resolution, and one frame period of time becomes shorten.
Then shorten exposure time makes dark image.
To fixed exposure time, selects “Timed” at “Exposure Mode” under “Acquisition Control” under “Remote Device” after fixed exposure time with this method, brightness of image is consistent and control by “Exposure Time” while reducing image resolution.
Please refers “GigEActionCommand” sample program that is included in Sentech SDK.
The drawing function can be use with v1.1.1 or later version of StViewer.
*v1.0.8 or older version of StViewer does not support drawing function.
The drawing menu is display when selecting “Drawing” under “Tools and Docking Windows” under “View” on menu of StViewer.
Sets “True” at “Enable Drawing On Saving Image” under “Drawing Tool” under “ImageDisplayWnd”.

The image with drawing data cannot be save when image saving by using file menu or save botton on tool bar on StViewer, and movie file.
There is different delay time between trigger input and start exposing is based on type of trigger input port (Opto-isolated input port or Open Collector input).
We recommend to use Open Collector input for trigger input to reduce delay time.
The validated development environment is IDLE including Python.
