2 The concept of image synchronization mode

2.1 free running

In this mode, the camera module runs on its own.

2.2 stream sync mode

One camera module is configured in master mode, and the other camera modules are configured in slave mode.

The camera module in master mode outputs XVS and XHS signals, while the camera module in slave mode follows the master module for exposure and output data.

In this mode, the exposure parameters of the camera module can be configured manually or automatically.

3 Hardware connection of sync mode

According to the following config method, J7-3 is used as the XVS signal and J7-1 as the XHS signal.(note: In version LV3.3, XHS signals no longer need to be connected)
