PC Only: A Note About SCSI Cards
The Fluor-S is connected to your computer by a Small Computer System Interface
(SCSI) cable. To use the Fluor-S, you must have a SCSI card installed in your PC. If
you have a PC with a Windows 98 or Windows ME operating system, you may also
need to load the SCSI and WinASPI drivers that came with the card.
Simulation Mode
Any of the imaging device acquisition windows can be opened in “simulation mode.”
In this mode, an acquisition window will open and the controls will appear active, but
instead of capturing real images, the window will create “dummy” images of
manufactured data.
You do not need to be connected to an imaging device to open a simulated acquisition
window. This is useful for demonstration purposes or practice scans.
To enter simulation mode, hold down the CTRL key and select the name of the device
from the File menu. The title of the acquisition window will indicate that it is
simulated.
G.1 Fluor-S Acquisition Window
To acquire images using the Fluor-S, go to the File menu and select Fluor-S.... The
acquisition window for the imager will open, displaying a control panel and an image
display window.
