How to increase the maximum allowable exposure time

1316 views 4 July 3, 2020 Updated on July 15, 2020

By default, LUCID cameras are prioritized to achieve maximum frame rate. However, due to the high frame rate configuration, the exposure time will be limited to a certain number, making the resulting exposure time constrained by the frame rate.

For example, if the frame rate is 30 FPS, the maximum allowable exposure would be 1/30 = 0.0333 seconds, which is 33.3 milliseconds.

As the frame rate decreases, the exposure time will increase. In other words, to achieve a higher allowable exposure time will require a decrease in frame rate.

To do that, first set Acquisition Frame Rate Enable to true, then decrease Acquisition Frame Rate. Set Exposure Auto to OFF, and increase Exposure Time.
