areaDetector: EPICS software for area detectors

- -

Module Owner: Mark Rivers: University of Chicago

- -

This page is the home of areaDetector, an application for controlling area (2-D) -detectors, including CCDs, pixel array detectors, and online imaging plates. - -

-NOTE: This module will replace the -ccd -and -pilatusROI -modules. - 

- -

Devices supported in areaDetector include:

- -

From Dectris -

- -

From Prosilica -

- -

From MAR

- - -

From Roper

- - -

From Bruker

- - -

Please email any comments and bug reports to Mark -Rivers who is -responsible for coordinating development and releases.

- -

Where to find it

-

The areaDetector module is in the EPICS Applications SVN repository on -SourceForge. -Persons wishing to collaborate on this project can contact Mark Rivers to get write access to this -application there. -

-You can download the software from the links in the table -below:

Installation and Building

-

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).

-
    -
  1. Create an installation directory for the module, usually this -will end with
    -
    - .../support/ -
    -
    2. -
  2. Place the distribution file in this directory. Then issue the -commands (Unix style) -

    • The SMART CCD camera line with Photometrics cameras. This requires the PCI interface
