-mcmaster notes

-Apogee Alta U2 from eBay. MSRP is about $6k, was $800 which was the best I could find for a cooled CCD with USB 
- 
-2018-05-22 
-  * Ubuntu 16 on main laptop 
-  * http://www.randomfactory.com/apogee-lfa.html 
-  * What was the relationship between libapogee and indi? 
-    * IIRC libapogee got discontinued 
-    * However, they didn't move the examples over 
-    * Should reach out to the devs 
-  * Using indi 
-    * https://github.com/indilib/indi.git 
-    * 58b26c584049e1b9ecd55aa5f4a225677a417898 
-  * Cooled CCD (Alta U2) frontside optical emissions imaging test: unable to see any activity despite 1 hour exposure + histogram equalization (raw image appears black) 
-    * Used minipro 
-    * https://github.com/JohnDMcMaster/uvscada/blob/master/emmap/ 
-      * I think

-====== libapogee ======

-What I used to get my early results. Works, but not reliably (sometimes image shows large splotch bands, almost like integration didn't start/stop correctly) 
- 
-<code> 
-wget http://www.randomfactory.com/downloads/libapogee-3.0.3234.tgz 
-tar -xf libapogee-3.0.3234.tgz 
-cd libapogee-3.0.3234 
-sed -i s/-lboost_regex-mt/-lboost_regex/ apogee/Makefile* 
-./configure 
-make -j$(nproc)

-====== micromanager ======

-Followed instructions in Apogee official pdf 
- 
-Got it to pickup, heard fan speed change 
- 
-<code> 
-C:\Program Files\Micro-Manager-1.4\MMConfig_apogee.cfg 
-</code> 
- 
-Got this working pretty quickly. Seems to work more reliably than the Apogee demo app
