New CCD Test
newCCDtest is a legacy viewer application, based on the
m3Api
. Please note that not all new functions are available in this viewer
because new functions are developed in xiAPI.
Usage:
•
Run newCCDtest_mm.exe (newCCDtest_mmX64.exe for 64 Bit systems) located in C:\XIMEA\Utilities
•
Select Acquistion – Run to start the image acquisition and display, or use the green Play Button.
•
Select Acquisiton – Setup to open the settings window
•
Value fields can be manipulated by their adjacent sliders or by using the mouse wheel (up-down) while a field is selected.
Holding SHIFT or CTRL while using the mouse wheel will increase the increment of the value change (+-10, +-100).
•
Select Configuration – GPIO open the GPIO settings window
•
Note: newCCDtest does not measure the available bandwidth for connected xiQ camera automatically.
If a USB host controller is used that cannot deliver a sufficient bandwidth, it is necessary to limit the bandwidth manually.
To do so, before starting the acquisition, open Configuration – Bus Speed, press Start/Stop to initiate the bandwidth
measure and press Set to apply the measure value as bandwidth limit.
