41 Chapter 5 Operation Introduction Once the PI- SCX camera has been in stalled, cam era operation is bas ically straightforward. I n most applicat ions you sim ply establish optim um perform ance usi.
42 PI - SCX System Manual Version 2.E 42 In A cquire mode, every fram e of data collected can b e automatical ly stored (the completed datase t may incl ude multiple fram es with one or m ore accumulations ). This mode would ordinarily be selected during actual data col lection.
Chapter 5 Operation 43 43 First Light The following paragraphs prov ide st ep -by- step instructions for verifying the opera tion of your PI-SC X system. The intent of th is simple proced ure is to he lp you gain basic familiarity w ith the operation of y our system and to show that it is function ing properly.
44 PI - SCX System Manual Version 2.E 44 Controller/Camera tab (Setup|Hard ware): Contr oller and Cam era parameters should be set autom at ically to the pr oper values fo r your system. H owever, you can click on the Load Defaults From Controller button on this tab to load the default settings.

While running WinView, gradua lly bring the cam era tem perature up in 10°C steps from its curren t lock tem perature to ambient tem perature.

Chapter 5 Operation 49 49 Saturation When signal lev els in som e part of the im age are very hig h, charge generat ed in one pixel may exceed the "well capacity" o f the pixel, sp illing over into adjacent pixe ls in a process called "bloom ing.
50 PI - SCX System Manual Version 2.E 50 The upper left drawing in Figure 19 represents a CCD after exposure but before the beg inning of readout. The capital letters repr esent diff erent amounts of charge, including both signal and dark charge. This secti on explains readou t at full reso lution, where every pixel is digitized separately.
Chapter 5 Operation 51 51 as image pixe ls, the binning of large sections m ay result in saturation and “bl oom ing”, or spilling of charg e back into the image area. Figure 20 shows an example of 2 2 bi nning. Each pix el of the im age displayed by the software represen ts 4 pixels of th e CCD array.
52 PI - SCX System Manual Version 2.E 52 This technique i s also usefu l in high lig ht level experiments, wh ere the cam era is again photon shot- noise limited. Sum ming multiple pixels in software correspond s to collect ing more photons, and results in a be tter S/N ratio in the measu rement.
Chapter 5 Operation 53 53 Example: The foll owing descr iptions assum e that the actual incoming lig ht level is identical in al l three instanc es. The numbers used il lustrate the effe ct of changin.
54 PI - SCX System Manual Version 2.E 54 ADC Offset ADC offset (al so known as base line offset) provid es another way of dealing with d ark charge (see "Dark Charg e" , page 48). By offsetting the baseline signal, m uch of the background is ig nored during conversion.
55 Chapter 6 Advanced Topics Introduction Previous chapter s have discussed sett ing up the hardware and the so ftware f or basic operation. This chapter discus ses topics as sociated with experiment synchro nization (se t up on the Experime nt Setup |Timing tab in WinV iew and WinSpec).
