Hi Kaz,
When we borrowed that detector and used areaDetector to save images they were 512x512, not 516x516. Joanne Stubbs said she thinks there may be some different options on how to handle edge pixels, so perhaps your settings are different from ours.

Thanks Mark on poiners to increase the number of ROI regions. Both modifications of screens, and commonPlugins is easy enough.
It is a loaner quad Merlin, and i am working with it for last 2 days. Perhaps I am still overlooked something.
Strangely enough, the image from Merlin seems to be 516x516 pixels, and not 512x512 the way documentation indicates, and ADMerlin has it setup.

Hi Kaz,

4 NDPluginROI plugins are loaded in the example commonPlugins.cmd file. You are free to edit that file to load more, or instantiate additional plugins in the st.cmd file in addition to those created in commonPlugins.cmd. You will also need to modify the OPI screen to access the additional plugins. Many sites customize what plugins are loaded, either not loaded unused plugins, loading additional instances of standard plugins, or loading new site-specific plugins they have written.
Those communication errors with the LabView socket server do not look correct. I don't recall seeing those, but I only had the detector for a couple of weeks and so did not spend a lot of time testing it.
Is this a purchased unit or their loaner?
Mark

Dear all,
For Merlin Quad detector, I compiled ADMerlin with newest AreaDetector (2.5?), and things seem to work properly. However, for the current application, we need 6 ROI regions, but AD provides only 4 ROI regions. Would increasing number of ROI regions to 6 in areaDetector be standardized?
2. I am also seeing the "labview" messages in the ioc which may or may not be important.I am wondering if this is anything to worry about???
