[OpenSPIM] search for 4D-stage dll

Tue Jun 24 09:38:38 CDT 2014

Hello Christian,

Sorry about your troubles with Micromanager.

I have no experience with this software.

But, I am hoping one of the people on the CC list (above) will respond to
your email soon.

They are the people that have developed the software to bridge Micromanager
to our software DLL that controls the 4D-Stage.

Let me know if you are still having problems, I can contact them directly
for you.

Thanks

Run the installer, and also copy the file 4D-Stage DLL and
Docs\Win32\PiUsb.dll (for 32-bit Micro-Manager) or 4D-Stage DLL and

Hello Christian,

Sorry to hear about your troubles with our USB-4D-Stage software.

The DLL files should have been loaded in the  C:\Program Files\Picard
Industries\USB 4D-Stage Application directory.

Check to see if they are there.

Are you able to run the Stage with our Windows application for testing?

If so, then the DLL files must be there (somewhere), the application uses
them. 

If you have any question with using Micro Manager, I encourage you to ask
the micromanager list (at
<https://www.micro-manager.org/wiki/Micro-Manager%20Community>
https://www.micro-manager.org/wiki/Micro-Manager%20Community) with any
questions as well. I've cced our collaborator Nico Stuurman who is lead of
the micromanager project and one of the lead programmers Mark Tsuchida. I
know they would like to address any questions or concerns you might have.

As for my French, I grew-up with French speaking parents (from Quebec) so I
did learn to speak French.

But I was born in the States (Vermont) and went to English schools.

There is very little opportunity to speak French here, except with family. 

I would need to move to Quebec (or France) to regain my full use of my
original language.

If I did, I am sure it would come back quickly.

Thanks (Merci)
