Typically EM gain levels should not be made to change during an experiment. The start level is tuned for each EMCCD chip.The actual EM gain range depends on the model of your camera: it can be from 0 to 255 (non-linear), 4096 (non-linear), orRealGain 1000 (linear) Lower settings of PAG is useful in Life Sciencesonly in Conventional (non-EM) modeĮMgain does not start at 1 for all cameras.

Divide the "Saturation Signal per Pixel (Electrons/pixel)" by the "CCD Sensitivity(Electrons/A2D count)" to get saturation signal in digital counts.Īlways set PAG to maximum "High sensitivity mode" when using EM gain. To determine the expected digital saturation limit, consult your cameraperformance sheet of your camera. for a particular camera thevalues could be 1x, 2.4x, 4.9xPAG can affect the saturation limit of your image. PAG multipliers like 1x, 2x, 4x can vary between cameras since they are tuned for each sensor, e.g. In reality, EM amplification happens on sensor, and PAG happens after readout of your sensor and beforedigitization. It's best to think of Pre-Amplifier Gain as follows: 4x = High sensitivity mode (use for EM gain) 2x = Intermediate sensitivity /capacity mode 1x = High capacity modeįor EMCCDs, Andor's nomenclature of PAG is confusing since one may think this "pre-" amplification happens before EMgain amplification.

Restarting Windows the second time clears this error.
#Andor solis file converter driver#
After the first restart you see a yellow question mark next to the driver in the Device Manager saying theĭriver failing to load (Code 31). If it finds the driver, repeat thisuninstall process until all copies of the driver are deleted.Ģ.
#Andor solis file converter software#
Uninstall the existing device driver for the Andor PCI/e framegrabber card:The following Microsoft guide explains who to do this, but there is no need to physically remove the card as described instep 6 of the Uninstall section: uninstalling, make sure to select Delete the driver software for this device.Use Scan for Hardware Changes Action in the Device Manager as described in the guide.

To fix this, update the Andor library used by Micromanager by copying the library file from the Andor Driver Pack to yourMicro-Manager installation directory:

The shell output below shows that the Clara (Vendor 0x136e Product0x000e) has been correctly plugged into its own USB bus (Bus# 1): You can easily check USB bus position with lsusb -t. Screenshot below of UVCview on Windows showing the Clara by itself on the USB bus, i.e. Try different USB slot positions on the computer until thecamera is on its own USB bus. You need to use a utility like UVCview to inspect the USB bus. USB cameras using high bandwidth such as the Clara must be plugged into the computer to be its own USB bus: The reason for this is a small set of PC motherboards may not fully complywith the PCI standard bandwidth, so try another motherboard (or more conveniently another computer) IXon 885 PCI cameras can have their live stream not start at all, but will work if you bin the image 2x2 or slow thehorizontal clock speed from 35MHz to 13MHz. Make sure you plug the PCIe card intoa fast enough bus.įor example the Dell XPS desktop 1x PCIe bus will not run at the rated speed when the PCIe 16x graphics card ispopulated, so you have to instead connect the Andor PCIe card to 8x PCIe slot The reason for this is PCmotherboards throttle the PCIe speed depending on the daughter boards populated. IXon PCIe cameras can have their live stream stops after 2 or 3 images or not start at all. To create a new configuration file use "Tools" > "Hardware Configuration You will be prompted to load a configuration file. Plug the camera into it's own USBbus on the computer.ġ. High-bandwidth USB cameras like the Clara and iXon may lose communication during imaging if they share a USB bus withanother high bandwidth USB device (like the Nikon Ti-E, some USB memory keys, etc).
