PEARL add support for new smaller sensor camera #8345

Closed rerpha closed 1 month ago

rerpha commented 1 month ago

as a PEARL instrument scientist i want to be able to use the new camera which has a smaller sensor than the previously used 1" ccd.

This is not a huge change as its the same manufacturer, but arvtool etc. will need to be used. we should also submit this upstream. Adgenicam does not currently have the exact models template so we will need to add it ourselves.

acceptance criteria

https://github.com/ISISComputingGroup/EPICS-areaDetector/pull/19 https://github.com/ISISComputingGroup/EPICS-ioc/pull/855 - note i have left binning stuff commented as we may need it in the future. currently at 10hz the camera is streaming ~250mbps but if we up the framerate we may need to bin to avoid network saturation. https://github.com/ISISComputingGroup/IBEX/pull/8348

Camera is working well at 10hz - scientist happy

upstream: https://github.com/areaDetector/ADGenICam/pull/41

To review vnc into ndxpearl and see the camera streaming or just see forwarded convo on email-exp-controls
