5. Because the PhotonMAX camera is second in the list (PM Style), you will now
have to edit the PVCAM.INI file created by RSConfig.exe. Refer to
"Editing
the PVCAM.INI File" , page 75, for instructions.
Detector Temperature, Acquire, and Focus are Grayed Out
(Versions 2.5.19.0 and earlier)
These functions and others will be deactivated if you have installed a camera being run
under PVCAM and have opened WinView/32 or WinSpec/32 without having first turned
on the PhotonMAX camera. They will also be deactivated if you have installed a camera
being run PVCAM and a Princeton Instruments (RSPI) high speed PCI card was also
detected when RSConfig.exe was run.
1. Check to see if the PhotonMAX is connected to the host computer and is
powered on. If it is not connected or is connected but not powered on, go to Step
2. If it is connected and on, go to Step 3.
2. Close WinView, verify that the PhotonMAX is connected to the host computer,
power the PhotonMAX on, and reopen WinView. The formerly grayed out
functions should now be available.
3. If the PhotonMAX camera (PM Style) is connected and powered on, it may not
be listed as Camera 1 in the PVCAM.INI file.
4. Run RSConfig.exe (accessible from the
Windows|Start|Programs|Roper
Scientific
menu). If the PhotonMAX camera is listed as Camera 2 (PM Style) in
Figure 63, you will have to edit the PVCAM.INI file. Refer to "Editing the
PVCAM.INI File" , page 75, for instructions.
