Parameter Description
This parameter establishes the method according to which the illumination control pulse is generated.
For area-scan cameras, the StrobeMode parameter relates to the illumination during the frame exposure period.
The default value is set automatically to MAN or AUTO by the exposure controller of MultiCam.
Equivalent features apply to line-scan cameras.
