  • Waveform: Pulsed mode
  • Frequency: 200Hz (or anything under 250Hz)
  • Pulse Height: 3.3V
  • Pulse Offset: 1.65V
  • Pulse Width: 1us 
  • Burst Mode: ON (lately it seems you must have it on to see anything on detector) 


Turning things off (warming up CCD):

  1. Turn cryotel off (cooler=off)
  2. Turn bias voltage off (power off on gui)
  3. Set target temp to +10C
  4. That's it


Troubleshooting issues and lessons learned:

  1. If frames aren't updating, it's a trigger issue.
  2. How to save data: NO TILDES, e.g. “/home/bnayak/test" and data gets saved as “test_4800x300_xx.raw” where xx is the frame count
  3. Detector constantly running, "Save Sequence" just determines how many get data files get written 
  4. Make sure temperature is actually at the target temp (DO NOT CLICK ramp enable)
