Hi Matt,

We are successfully running ADAndor on RHEL 7.6 with an iXon Ultra 897 (USB 2.0 interface). We are using version 2.102.30034.0 of the SDK.

The issues Tom mentions are for an Andor Zyla CMOS detector using a Bitflow framegrabber with ADAndor3. We needed to use a later version of the RHEL7 kernel to build the kernel module for the framegrabber, but we still have issues communicating with the camera.

Kind regards,
Ben

Hi Matt,

Ben (copied) has seen some Andor issues both installing the kernel driver and then getting ADAndor to see any cameras on RHEL7. I don't know how far he got, and he's away for another week, but it would be interesting to compare notes.

Thanks,
Tom
