PUT /detector/api/1.8.0/command/trigger returns once the acquisition is finished #4

Closed sdebionne closed 1 year ago

sdebionne commented 1 year ago

Running an acquisition of 20 frames with expo time of 1s, internal trigger, I measure the duration of the trigger command to be roughly the duration of the acquisition:

PUT /detector/api/1.8.0/command/trigger took 20107 ms

Is this expected?

The answer is yes, PUT /detector/api/1.8.0/command/trigger is a long lasting http request in INTS trigger mode. But I believed this is breaking the Principle of Least Astonishment :grin: and I would appreciate a documentation update.

I believe this question does not belong to this repo, so closing.
