file name and save location for this preset file. This allows for unlimited saving of presets 
under unique file names/locations. The preset function retains the channel on/off and 
channel intensity values from the save point.  

To load a preset, select “Load Preset” and select your chosen preset file from your 
specified  location.  The  “Active  Preset”  box  will  then  display  your  chosen  preset 
filename  and  preset  identification  name.  Figure  10  shows  preset  filename  as  “Test 
Presets” and preset identification name as “Test Preset ”.

Software Dual Operation Mode 

The  niji  can  receive  and  send  commands  to  multiple  sources  via  the  separate 
hardware  connection  ports  (USB  and  RS232).  For  example,  with  the  niji  software 
running on a windows desktop and a windows tablet, both devices can control and 
monitor the current level settings. If a level is changed on one software instance the 
other instance of the software will mirror the change.

Using the niji with Micromanager 

The niji has a native Micromanager adapter which is available by downloading the 
nightly release. If running the niji with Micromanager using the RS232 connection, the 
baud  rate  should  be  set  to  57600  using  an  XML  configuration  file.  Please  contact 
Bluebox Optics or your local distributor for more information.
