So far we know this works on Falcon4. This improves the acquiring time of 10 second frame saving to on-average of 1.0 s but for now returns a fake statistics if in save 8x8 mode with 0.6 s gain. For short exposure, the improvement is much smaller.

Default is not to use the feature. To use on eligible Falcon4, add to fei.cfg on the TFS microscope PC

under [camera] section

USE_CAMERA_QUEUE = True
