Hi Ulrik,

Thanks a lot for that.
I'll take a look and see how I can contribute!

Hey Gabriel,

sorry for the late reply, I unfortunately forgot to reply to your mail yesterday, but I’m glad it has worked for you.

I have added a wiki page detailing the steps for installing the nightly build, also with Andor cams - find it at http://openspim.org/64bit_OpenSPIM

If you have anything to add, feel free to create an account for the wiki and add it :)

cheers!

Hi All,

The issue was solved by reinstalling the drivers to the mFiji package using the following Andor package: http://www.andor.com/ftp/14544/AndorDriverPack3Setup-3.7.30010.0.ziphttp://www.andor.com/ftp/14544/AndorDriverPack3Setup-3.7.30010.0.zip
When prompted for the install location, just change it to the mFiji folder.

Thanks Ulrik for all the help!

Hello Gabriel,

we are also using Andor Neo cameras and they work pretty great.

Currently, we are refactoring the OpenSPIM plugin, so it can be used with a normal installation of Fiji and MicroManager, so our special package is not needed anymore. I have a recent nightly build available, based on MicroManager 1.4.18, which you can find at https://idisk-srv1.mpi-cbg.de/~gunther/OpenSPIM/mFiji.zip The corresponding OpenSPIM plugin is available at https://idisk-srv1.mpi-cbg.de/~gunther/OpenSPIM/SPIMacquisition.jar and has to be put into the mmplugins/ directory. This version also works on 64bit machines.

With this version, you can just create your setup as usual, just select the Andor SDK3 as camera.

Please let me know if that worked for you :-)

cheers,

ulrik

Hi All,

We are currently trying to use an Andor Neo camera in our OpenSPIM setup instead of the described Hamamatsu.
Is there some "best practices" advice anyone could give regarding how to go about using a different camera in the setup (preferably the Andor Neo) and how to get the FIJI/OpenSPIM package to cooperate with the camera?

Thank you,
