Main tab card
• Exposure Time: Enter a value. The exposure time can either be greater
than the readout time or it can be equal to the readout time. If you want
an exposure time > readout time, enter a value larger than the readout
time calculated when the virtual chip definition was downloaded. If you
want an exposure time = readout time, enter 000 sec.
• Number of Images: Enter the desired number of images.
• Use Region of Interest
• Accumulations: 1
ADC tab card
• Type: FAST
ROI Setup tab card: Make no changes to the settings on this tab card unless

• High Speed Mode Enabled
• Virtual Chip Definition: The settings below assume a 47x47 pixel virtual
chip. The X and Y dimensions are established by the external mask. The
virtual chip is fully flexible in the X direction. However, the set of choices
for the Y-dimension has been pre- selected for optimal performance. Note
that the origin point that Princeton Instruments uses for a CCD array is 1,1.
• Chip Y Dimension: 47. Select this dimension from the drop down list.
