ScanImage 5 Scanner Hardware

 

ScanImage 5 requires a pair of scanners (one resonant and one galvo scanner) to achieve video-rate area scanning operation. 

ScanImage 5 users can choose either:

  • scanner system that combines a resonant scanner and galvo scanner

  • scanner components - one resonant scanner and one galvo scanner

...

ScanImage 5 Scanner Systems

...

Sutter Instrument systems:

 

ScanImage 5 Resonant Scanner Components

 

Cambridge Technology components

  • CRS 8Khz (part 6SC08KA012-02Y)
  • CRS 12Khz (part 6SC12KA012-02Y)
  • Classic CRS-8 scanner 

 

ScanImage 5 Galvo Scanner Components 

...

Any analog-driven galvo scanner component, including galvanometer-mounted mirror and servo driver circuit, can be used.

...

(tick) Class 0 servo topology is recommended, but not required

 

...

ScanImage 5 DAQ Hardware

 

ScanImage 5 will use National Instruments PXI FlexRIO platform.

...

Tip

Stay tuned for a National Instruments ScanImage 5 configuration tool

We anticipate this may include small discounts on hardware

  • Required DAQ Components 

User-Selected DAQ Components 

Digitizer Module

...

Features in future versions (SI 2015 & beyond) may utilize the far
greater (~10x) image processing power of the PXIe-7975R, e.g. closed-loop experiments.

 

Tip
titlePXIe-7961 loaners

The PXIe-7975R option will be supported by ScanImage 5 by August 2014.

Vidrio tentatively has access to a small pool of PXIe-7961R loaners

Loaners are intended for users who purchase a PXIe-7975R
but need to start using ScanImage 5 sooner than August. Contact membersupport@vidriotech.com if interested.

User-Optional DAQ Components 

Users can add additional boards for control of Beams (Pockels) and Piezo features.
(tick) Beams control is recommended. Allows blanking laser during resonant scanner slowdown and galvo scanner flyback.
(tick) Piezo control is optional. Allows for volume imaging
For each optional feature desired, select one of the following X series DAQ boards:

(info) PCIe-6321 option is cheaper, but requires additional wiring and uses a computer PCIe slot
