Hardware-Triggered Sequences in Micro-Manager
Revision as of 20:34, 28 September 2012 by Arthuredelstein (Talk | contribs)
Micro-Manager features a triggering framework that permits the precise and rapid synchronization of some hardware components with a camera.
Supported Controller Devices
- Arduino -- Allows triggered sequencing of TTL and DAC states
- ASIStage -- Allows triggered sequencing of ASI piezo focus drives
- AgilentLaserCombiner -- Accepts TTL pulses for laser channel switching, as well as DAC control of piezo cofus drives
- ESIOImagingControllers -- controls AOTFs (laser combiners) and piezo focus drives
- Marzhauser -- triggering of focus drive
Channels
LED illuminators and AOTF-based laser combiners both have very fast switching times, and are thus prime candidates for hardware synchronization.
