Overview

ScanImage 5 will 1) unify resonant and galvo scanning capabilities into a single architecture and 2) support the use of generic resonant scanning hardware. ScanImage 5 will support hardware configurations with resonant scanning, galvo scanning, or both (by SI 5.1).

ScanImage 5 will have customization layers for both CPU and FPGA-based processing (latter for resonant scanned imaging only) which can be used to implement online or real-time analysis, including closed-loop experiments with parallel imaging and (photo)stimulus.

Digitizer Hardware

Digitizer hardware is required for imaging based on resonant and/or galvo scanning.

Resonant Scanning

ScanImage 5 Resonant will use National Instruments PXI FlexRIO platform. The system consists of a: PXI chassis, FPGA Module, and digitizer module.

PXI Chassis: PXIe-1073 chassis typical. More advanced chassis supported as well.

FPGA Module: PXIe-7961R (smaller FPGA) & PXIe-7966R (larger FPGA) supported

Digitizer Module: NI 5732 (2 Chans/80MHz) & NI 5734 (4 Chans/120MHz) supported

(tick) Users can refer to "Vidrio ScanImage 5" to configure a standard ScanImage 5 system with National Instruments.

  • National Instruments can include extended warranty support for the hardware bundles, You will be given the option when placing the order. Please discuss with your local sales rep if you have questions.
  • ScanImage 5 will include pre-complied FPGA bitfiles - one for each of the four FPGA/Digitizer combinations above. Theis whitepaper shows how to download bitfiles to FPGA hardware.
  • The PXIe-7962R FPGA module will likely also be supported (bitfiles provided), but this will not be as extensively tested.
  • The 7961R is suited for core imaging capabilities and limited future extensibility. The 7966 supports greater future extensibility.
  • The standard PXIe-1073 chassis is a 5-slot 'remote controller' chassis connecting to the computer via a PCIe (PCI Express) card. Both PCIe card and cable are included.

 

Galvo Scanning

ScanImage 5 Galvo will support the following input digitizer options:

FamilyModel Number(s)Comments
PCIe X SeriesPCIe-6351, PCIe-6353PCIe-6351/6353 recommended for no-Pockels/Pockels cases, respectively
PXIe X SeriesPXIe-6356, PXIe-6358PXIe boards fit into chassis used for resonant scanning (if applicable). PXIe-6356/6358 recommended for no-Pockels/Pockels cases, respectively.
S SeriesPCI-6110Not recommended for new systems, but will remain supported
