27 Chapter 3 First Light Introduction Note: The instructions in this chapter ar e for an ST-133 operated with a TE-cooled camera. They do not apply to the PI-MAX or LN-cooled cameras. See the PI-MAX system manual for detailed information regarding that camera.
28 ST-133 Controller Manual Version 3.B Before You Start , if your system includes a microscope Xenon or Hg arc lamp, it is CRITICAL to turn off all electronics adjacent to the arc lamp, especially your digital camera system and your computer hardware (monitors included) before turning on the lamp power.
Chapter 3 First Light 29 Getting Started 1. If the system cables haven’t as yet been in stalled, connect them as follows (system power off). See Figure 7. • Connect the 25-pin cable from the DETECTOR connector on the Analog/Control module panel to the mating connector at the cam era.
30 ST-133 Controller Manual Version 3.B 2. With USB 2.0, the controller must be turned on before WinView/32 or WinSpec/32 is opened and WinView/32 or WinSpec/32 must be closed before the controller is turned off. 6. Turn on the computer power. 7. Start the application software.
Chapter 3 First Light 31 Cleans and Skips tab page (Setup|Hardware): Default Experiment Setup Main tab page (Acquisition|Experiment Setup…): • Exposure Time: 100 ms • Accumulations & Number of Images: 1 Experiment Setup ROI tab page (Acquisition|Experiment Setup…): Use this function to define the region of interest (ROI).
32 ST-133 Controller Manual Version 3.B 3. After you have focused the camera, you can stop Focus mode, continue Focus mode, begin Acquire mode, or wait for the CCD to reach the operating temperature before going to Acquire mode. 4. If the array is cooled by LN, empty the De war before turning off the controller.
Chapter 3 First Light 33 Assumptions The following procedure assumes that 1. You have already set up your system in accordance with the in structions in the system manual. 2. You have read the previous sections of this chapter. 3. You are familiar with the application software.
34 ST-133 Controller Manual Version 3.B -5°C, unless it is a model having forced air cooling, in which case temperature lock down to -40°C (-90°C for the XTE) can be achieved. 4. Turn on the controller power. Notes: 1. A camera overload alarm m ay sound briefly a nd then stop.
Chapter 3 First Light 35 Detector Temperature (Setup|Detector Temperature…): -40°C for air-cooled. When the array temperature reaches the set temperature, the green Temp Lock LED on the rear of the ST-133 will light and there will be a locked indication at the computer monitor.
36 ST-133 Controller Manual Version 3.B Hint: Overhead fluorescent lights produce a mercury spectrum. Use a white card tilted at 45 degrees in front of the entrance slit to reflect overhead light into the spectrograph. Select 435.833 as the spectral line.
37 Chapter 4 Temperature Control Introduction Temperature control is done via software. On ce the desired array temperature has been set, the hardware controls the thermoelectric c ooling circuits in the camera so as to reduce the array temperature to the set value.
38 ST-133 Controller Manual Version 3.B Cooling (TE, NTE, NTE 2, RTE, XTE, PI-MAX) These cameras are ordinarily equipped with a multi-stage Peltier type cooler that is thermally coupled to the CCD. This device uses injected current to draw heat away from the CCD surface.
Chapter 4 Temperature Control 39 Cooling and Vacuum Many cameras incorporate a vacuum chamber for enhanced cooling performance. With time, there can be a gradual deterioration of the camera’s vacuum.

54 ST-133 Controller Manual Version 3.B levels, magnetic fields and RF radiation. They are easily cooled and can be precisely thermostated to within a few tens of millidegrees. Because CCD arrays, like film and other media, are always sensitive to light, light must not be allowed to fall on the array during readout.
Chapter 6 Exposure and Readout 55 accuracy. Intensifier gain is varied by adjus ting the voltage across the MCP or the voltage across the MCP output and the phosphor. This second parameter is a factory adjustment, as it affects both the gain and the resolution of the intensifier.
56 ST-133 Controller Manual Version 3.B Dark Charge Dark charge or dark current is the therma lly induced buildup of charge in the CCD over time. The statistical noise associated with this charge is known as dark noise,. Dark charge values vary widely from one CCD array to another and are exponentially temperature dependent.
Chapter 6 Exposure and Readout 57 Analog Gain Control Analog gain control is used to change the number of electrons required to generate an Analog-to-Digital Unit (ADU, also known as a count). In WinView/32, the analog gain choices are Low , Medium , and High .
58 ST-133 Controller Manual Version 3.B Readout of the Array In this section, a simple 6 × 4 pixel CCD is used to demons trate how charge is shifted and digitized. As described below, two different types of readout are available. Full frame readout, for full frame CCDs, reads out the entire CCD surface at the same time.
Chapter 6 Exposure and Readout 59 The time needed to take a full frame at full resolution is: t R + t exp + t c (1) where t R is the CCD readout time, t exp is the exposure time, and t c is the shutter compensation time.
60 ST-133 Controller Manual Version 3.B photon shot noise limited, the S/N ratio im proveme nt is roughly proportional to the square-root of the number of pixels binned. Figure 29 shows an example of 2 × 2 binning. Each pixel of the image displayed by the software represents 4 pixels of the CCD array.
Chapter 6 Exposure and Readout 61 Binning in Software One limitation of hardware binning is that the shift register pixels and the output node are typically only 2-3 times the size of imaging pixels as shown in Table 5.
62 ST-133 Controller Manual Version 3.B 5 4 12 Charge accumulates in unmasked cells during exposure . Accumulated charge in exposed cells is quic kly transf erred under mask. Shifting continues until all masked data has been shifted into serial register and from there to the Output Node.
