ADViewers R1-2 is now available.  This is from the release notes:

 

*************************************************

======================

### EPICS_NTNDA_Viewer

* Changed connection management to use callbacks rather than polling.  Thanks to Marty Kraimer for this.

* Previously this viewer was incorrectly treating signed 8-bit and 16-bit images as unsigned.

  Changed so that signed 8-bit and 16-bit data are now converted to float, so ImageJ correctly displays negative values.

  Conversion to float is required because the ImageJ ByteProcessor and ShortProcessor only support unsigned integers.

* Improved the status messages in the display to show when the display is stopped, and when connect and

  disconnect events occur.

 

### EPICS_AD_Viewer

  Changed so that signed 8-bit and 16-bit data are now converted to float, so ImageJ correctly displays negative values.

  Conversion to float is required because the ImageJ ByteProcessor and ShortProcessor only support unsigned integers.
