<h1>areaDetector: EPICS software for area detectors</h1>
<p>Module Owner: Mark Rivers: University of Chicago</p>
<p>This page is the home of <b>areaDetector</b>, an application for controlling area (2-D)
detectors, including CCDs, pixel array detectors, and online imaging plates.
<P>
<B>NOTE:</B> This module will replace the
<a href="http://cars.uchicago.edu/software/epics/ccd.html">ccd</a>
and
<a href="http://cars.uchicago.edu/software/epics/epilatusROI.html">pilatusROI</a>
modules.
&nbsp;</p>
<p>Devices supported in <b>areaDetector</b> include:</p>
<p>From <A href="http://www.dectris.com">Dectris</A>
<UL>
<LI> The <A href="http://www.dectris.com/sites/pilatus100k.html">Pilatus</A>
pixel-array detector.
</UL>
<p>From <A href="http://www.prosilica.com">Prosilica</A>
<UL>
<LI> High-speed, high-resolution CCD cameras. These use GigE and Firewire interfaces.
</UL>
<p>From <a href="http://www.mar-usa.com/">MAR</a></p>
<UL>
<LI>MAR-165 CCD camera.</li>
<LI>MAR-345 online image plate reader</li>
</ul>
<p>From <a href="http://www.roperscientific.com/">Roper</a></p>
<UL>
<LI>All CCD cameras supported by the WinView program.&nbsp; This includes the
entire Princeton Instruments line, as well as most of the
Photometrics line.</li>
</ul>
<p>From <a href="http://www.bruker-axs.de/">Bruker</a></p>
<UL>
<LI>The SMART CCD camera line with Photometrics cameras.
This requires the PCI interface card, replacing the old ISA bus card, and requires
controlling the detector with WinView, not the SMART software.</li>
</ul>
<p>Please email any comments and bug reports to <a href="mailto:%20rivers@cars.uchicago.edu">Mark
Rivers</a> who is
responsible for coordinating development and releases.</p>
<h2>Where to find it</h2>
<p>The areaDetector module is in the EPICS Applications SVN repository on
<a href="http://epics.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/epics/applications/trunk/areaDetector/">SourceForge.</a>
Persons wishing to collaborate on this project can contact Mark Rivers to get write access to this
application there.

<h2>Installation and Building</h2>
<p>After obtaining a copy of the distribution, it must be installed
and built for use at your site. These steps only need to be
performed once for the site (unless versions of the module running
under different releases of EPICS and/or the other required modules
are needed).</p>
<ol>
<LI>Create an installation directory for the module, usually this
will end with<br>
<br>
<tt>.../support/</tt>
<br>
</li>
<LI>Place the distribution file in this directory. Then issue the
commands (Unix style)
<pre>tar xvzf areaDetectorRX-Y.tgz
