Setting the Parameters
Note: The following procedure is based on WinSpec/32: you will need to modify it if
you are using a different application. Basic familiarity with the WinSpec/32 software is
assumed. If this is not the case, you may want to review the software manual or have it
available while performing this procedure.
Set the software parameters as follows:
Environment dialog (Setup|Environment): Verify
that the DMA Buffer
size is 8 Mbytes (min.). Large arrays may require a larger buffer size. If you
change the buffer size, you will have to reboot the computer for this memory
allocation to be activated, and then restart WinSpec.
Controller|Camera tab page (Setup|Hardware): Controller and Detector
param
eters should be set automatically to the proper values for your system.
However, you can click on the
Load Defaults From Controller button on
this tab page to load the default settings.
• Use PVCAM: 100 kHz or 1 MHz sy
stems only. For software versions
2.5.19.0 and lower, verify that the box is checked if you are using the
USB 2.0 interface.
Note: This check box is not present on software versions 2.5.19.6 and
higher.

Detector Temperature (Setup|Detector Temperature…): -15°
C for
round camera heads or -45°C for rectangular camera heads. 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. Note that some overshoot may occur. This could cause
temperature lock to be briefly lost and then quickly re-established. If you are
reading the actual temperature reported by the application software, there
may be a small difference between the set and reported temperature when
lock is established. This is normal and does not indicate a system
