LIMA Release Notes This is the release notes of LIMA, the library for image acquisition. You can find information related to new features and bug fixes. Some bug fix on new features can reference gitlab.esrf.fr merge requests as MR-XXX. Version v1.9.23 released on November 2nd 2023 --------------------------------------------- New features * CtAccumulation: improve (internal) soft operations' error handling (MR-249) * Support acq. params modify image params (like bit depth) (MR-240) Bug fixes * Avoid dead-locks due to acq. of both CtControl & CtSaving mutexes (MR-248) * Fix BufferCtrlMgr when only image_type signedness changes (MR-245) Camera updates * Andor3 v1.11.0 * update for sdk 3.15.30092.2, only one with bitflow driver supported by ubuntu 20.04 kernel version * Update deps to lima-core>=1.9.20 which introduces a binary incompatibility with AutoMutex class * Support of MARANA detector * Change of camera interface. Andor3 parameters are not fixed enum anymore * serial_number can be specified to attach interface to a specific camera. This allow to have two controlled cameras on the same PC. * Basler from v1.10.1 to v1.10.10 * effective frame rate (tango attr frame_rate) now available * Hw Roi for camera with increment (e.g acA1920-50gm) * Fix: changing latency_time (to change frame rate) raised an exception * getStatus() returns Ready when in soft/hw trigger mode and camera is ready to receive a new trigger. An optimisation to reduce delay between frame triggering. * used callback instead of acquisition thread. * Wait that camera is ready for trigger * Provide blank image when missing frames * Fix: enforce force_video_mode should be 'false' or 'true' * Fix: revert fixed packet_size @ 1000 and take into account the passed value in the ctor * Add support for ACE2 camera models * Temperature reading now available from PyTango device server * Fix: getGain() did not return percent of the gain range but the raw value instead * Add support for USB3 camera interface * Using new SDK Pylon version 6.3 * Dhyana v1.9.6 * IntTrig is using sequence TUCSEN mode due to synchronization the first frame is corrupted and must be through out. * Fixed issue with hw trigger and long delay when TUCAM_Cap_Stop() is called: * Update the sdk local include files to version 2.0 20220915 * add a test program for hw trigger mode * Eiger v1.9.14 * Filewriter: at prepare delete the remaining files in DCU storage * HW roi support added for 9M and 16M models * Update deps to lima-core>=1.9.20 which introduces a binary incompatibility with AutoMutex class * Camera be initialize with a memory mapped file (e.g ramdisk) to use the new MmapFileBufferAllocMgr buffer manager, and have a fixed amount of memory allocated during the whole life of the camera server.
