Re: Show areaDetector image with BOY IntensityGraph

[Phil Atkin <phil.atkin@pixelanalytics.co.uk>]

Thanks Steven,

max_array_bytes should be OK.  The PV settings look OK.

Probe can't see the array - so that's quite diagnostic.
caget can report the values in the array, but also reports "Identical process variable names on multiple servers" - I'd forgotten about this.  When I start the IOC I do:

set EPICS_CA_AUTO_ADDR_LIST=NO
set EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST=192.168.1.255

... and if I run caget with these settings, I no longer see the warning.

CSS is running on the same (Windows) machine as the IOC.  Do I need to configure it in a similar way, perhaps?

Regards,

Phil

CSS-BOY is displaying my camera control screens correctly, and my camera reacts accordingly.  It's delivering images, because I can see them in the ImageJ display or through caget; I just can't see them on the Intensity Graph widget.  Not with my own screen and not with Tomas', either.  Tomas’ screen does show a couple of the camera properties that are compatible with my camera - but the Intensity Graph widgets just show 'No data'.

Possible problems include incorrectly specifying the PV for the array data in the IntensityGraph configuration, or too small of max_array_bytes for the array in the CS-Studio preferences.

Try looking at your *:ArrayData PV using another CSS tool such as Probe (which will show you the connection status, time stamp and the first few elements of the array). Also try a right-click on the widget to select “Show PV Info” to confirm the ArrayData PV is the same as ImageJ is using.
