Re: [micro-manager-general] SPOT insight color camera

Hi Peter, Hi Mr. unknown

thanks for the replies.
The thing about the trial version and the still valid drivers after the test period kind of dawned on me, when I was thinking about it...

Thanks Peter for pointing out that there is no 64-bit interface for the spot camera, that's with what I was woking at the beginning. So I deinstalled the 64-bit versions and installed the 32-bit version. I noticed that it suggests still the Program Files folder instead of the Program Files (x86). However I let it have its way.
Later when adding then Spot camera in the Configuration Wizard, an error window pops up saying:
"Attempt to set "Core Camera" to "Spot". Core property is ready only or the request value is not allowed."
So I run Micro-Manager as admin, but still had the same message.
I could save the configuration though but when going to live mode I would not get an image. But when checking with the Spot software, while Micro-Manager was still running, Spot says, that the camera is busy. Accordingly MM communicates with the camera but does not seem to get much out of it.

Do you have any ideas what I could do to solve that problem?

Regards,

Felix

I downloaded the trial version of the Spot software and installed that. Even after the trial expires you will still have the drivers on your computer that micro manager can use.
Thanks

Hello

We would like to control the spot color mosaic camera with micromanager too.
So I was checking the instructions on the device support<http://valelab.ucsf.edu/~MM/MMwiki/index.php/SpotCamera>.
But the information about where to find the adapter on the Spot website<http://www.spotimaging.com/downloads.php> is outdated and did not lead me to the required piece of software... the "SPOT Camera DLL" was nowhere to be found.

Do I need to ask Spot for the SDK instead? or how was that intended to work?

Regards,
