areaDetector Release Notes</h1>
<h2 style="text-align: center">
Release 1-5 (xxx-April-2009)</h2>
<ul>
<li>Added a driver for mar345 online image plate detector. This driver communicates
via a TCP/IP socket with the mar345dtb program, which must be used to control the
detector.</li>
<li>Added a driver for Firewire IIDC/DCAM cameras under Windows. This driver uses
the Windows 1394 camera driver from Carnegie Mellon University.</li>
<li>Added support for color to the simulation detector driver. It now supports color
modes Mono, RGB1, RGB2 and RGB3.</li>
<li>Fixed 2 serious bugs in the Roper driver. It was not selecting ROI mode correctly.
When NumAcquisitions was &gt 1 it was only collecting the first frame correctly,
subsequent frames were the same as a first one. This has been isolated to a bug
in the WinView COM interface, and a workaround for the problem has been implemented.</li>
<li>Began to document the source code with comments that doxygen can processes. Thanks
to John Hammonds from APS for doing this.</li>
<li>Moved the asynPortDriver base C++ class from the areaDetector module to the asyn
module. The asynPortDriver base class was modified slightly to make it more general.
In particular the constructor no longer hardcodes ASYN_CANBLOCK, ASYN_MULTIDEVICE,
epicsThreadPriorityMedium, and epicsThreadStackMedium. This requires that asyn R4-11
or later be used, and requires 2 additional arguments to the constructor (priority
and stackSize) for all areaDetector drivers and plugins.</li>
<li>Fixed bug in NDPluginFile: was not closing file properly when stream mode was
stopped before the requested number of frames.</li>
<li>Fixed Makefiles to instantiate templates on vxWorks.</li>
<li>Minor bug fixes for Prosilica driver (function names in debug statements).</li>
</ul>
