* In external trigger mode, the kinetic cycle time is determined by the frequency of the GPS POP signals. However, this frequency should not be higher than than the minimum readout time. The minimum allowed kinetic cycle time is calculated and displayed; this may be useful when deciding on the GPS POP frequency to use.
* For all trigger modes, the number of frames in the data cube is determined by the Kinetic Series value.
* The next row down allows the sub-image area and binning to be chosen. For both of these, standard or custom values may be used. Smaller sub-images and higher binning allow faster image readouts, at the expense of image size and resolution. The minimum values discussed above are automatically re-calculated and displayed when the sub-image or binning is changed. NOTE: BINNING DIMENSIONS SHOULD BE EQUALLY DIVISIBLE INTO THE AREA OF THE SUB-IMAGE WHEN USING CUSTOM VALUES. An error message will appear, and will need to be cleared, when the values are not evenly divisible.
** You can visually draw a custom sub-image in the display area by clicking the white square to the right of the sub-image options. This will display a red region which can be manipulated to select the desired sub-image. Click the square again to hide the region in the display area. NOTE: YOU WILL NEED TO CAPTURE A FRAME BEFORE YOU CAN SELECT A SUB-FRAME USING THIS METHOD.
* Below this, the readout speed and preamp gain may be set. Higher readout speeds allow for shorter exposure times, but at the expense of noisier data.
