Shad-o-Scan 3001/4501 X-Ray Detector

Teledyne DALSA

After uploading the file to the detector, CamExpert will request for a restart of the
detector. This allows the reboot with the new firmware.

The timing control signals to the sensor of the detector are not part of the firmware
but described in a separate file which is stored in the flash memory of the detector.
In some cases an update of this file is required.

The version can be seen in Camera Information > Timing Version:

This file can be uploaded through File Access Control > Upload/Download File.

Use the browse button to select a pattern file which has the extension BIN. The
filename has the following format:

MODELNAME.bin
