28 PIXIS Sy stem Manual Version 2.C Notes: 1. Make sure that there are no kinks in the hoses that im pede the coolant flow. Lack of sufficient f low can seriously harm the detecto r and any resulting dam age is not covered under warr anty. 2. Damage caused by water leak ing into the PIXI S voids the warranty.

52 PIXIS Sy stem Manual Version 2.C Focusing The detector m ounting hardware p rovides two degre es of freedom : focus and rotation . In this contex t, focus mean s to physically m o ve the detector back and forth through the focal plane of the spectrograph.

You can do th i s by rotating the cam er a while watching a live display of th e line (you m a y need to loosen two setscrews securing the spectrograph adapte r). Click on the peak y ou want to monitor during the rotational alignm ent.
Chapter 5 Operation 55 55 IsoPlane SCT-320 Spec trograph Because the PI XIS is mounted directly to the m ounti ng plate on the I soPl ane, focusing and alignm ent is different from the way that focusing and alig nment are perform ed for an Acton Series spec t rograph.
56 PIXIS Sy stem Manual Version 2.C Exposure and Signal Introduction The following topics address f actors that can a ffect the signal acquired on the CCD array. These factors incl ude array arch itecture, exposur e time, CC D temperature, dark charge, and saturation.
Chapter 5 Operation 57 57 Continuous Exposure (No Shuttering) For full-frame im aging CCDs, the standard PI XIS camera for imaging i s equipped with an integral shutt er. However, in asmuch as it is possible to order the camera wi thout a shutter, the follow ing general d i scussion of uns huttered operat ion is provided.
58 PIXIS Sy stem Manual Version 2.C Once the target a rray tem perature {Temperature Setpo int} has been set, t he software controls the cam era's cooling ci rcuits to reach s et array tem per ature. On reach i ng that temperature, the control loo p locks to that tem per ature for stable and r eproducible performance.
Chapter 5 Operation 59 59 For signal lev els low enough to be readout-noise lim it ed, longer exposu r e times, a nd therefore longer s ignal accum ula tion in the CCD, will improv e t he S/N ratio approximately l inearly with the length of exp osure time.
60 PIXIS Sy stem Manual Version 2.C Full Frame Readout The upper left drawing i n Figure 25 represents a CCD after exposure but before the beg inning of readout. The capital letters repr esent diff erent amounts of charge, i ncludin g both signal and dark charge.

64 PIXIS Sy stem Manual Version 2.C Controller Gain Controller gain (a func tion of the pr eamplifier) is software-selectable a nd is used to change the rela tionship betw een the number of el ectrons acqui red on the CCD and the Analog- to -Digital Units (A DUs or counts) generated.
Chapter 5 Operation 65 65 Digitization (Rate) Introduction After gain has be en applied to the s i gnal, the Ana log- to -D igital Converter (AD C) converts that analog i nformation (cont inuous amplitud es ) into a dig ital data (quan t ified, discrete steps) that can be read, d i splayed, and stored by t he application sof t ware.

68 PIXIS Sy stem Manual Version 2.C Timing Modes Overview The basic PIXI S timing modes are Free Run {No Resp onse}, External Sy nc {Readout Per Trigg er}, and External Sync {R eadout Per Trigg er } with Continuous Clea ns {Clean Until Trigg er }.
Chapter 6 Advanced Topic s 69 69 Free Run {No Response} In the Free Run {No R esponse} m ode t he camera does not synchronize with the experiment in any way. The shutter opens as soon as the prev ious readout is complete, and remains open for t he exposure tim e, t exp .
70 PIXIS Sy stem Manual Version 2.C External synchron ization depends on an edge trigger (negativ e- or positive-going) w hich must be supplied to the EXT SYNC connec t or on the back of the cam era.
Chapter 6 Advanced Topic s 71 71 The PreOpen {Open B efore Trigg er } mode is useful in cases whe re an External Sync pulse cannot be pr ovided 8 ms or ~ 20 ms (the length of time the 25 m m or 45 mm mechanical shu tter takes to open) before the ac t ual signal oc curs.
