Certificate of Performance

Each ProEM camera is shipped with a Certificate of Performance which states that the
camera system has been assembled and tested according to approved Teledyne
Princeton Instruments procedures. It documents the camera's performance data as
measured during the testing of the ProEM and lists the following camera- and
customer-specific information:

WinX/32
The ProEM camera can be operated by using either WinView/32 or WinSpec/32,
Teledyne Princeton Instruments' 32-bit Windows
specifically for high-end imaging and spectroscopy, respectively. The Teledyne
Princeton Instruments' software provides comprehensive image/spectral
capture and display functions. The package also facilitates snap-ins to permit
advanced operation. Using the optional built-in macro record function, you can
also create and edit your own macros to automate a variety of operations.
WinView and WinSpec take full advantage of the versatility of the ProEM camera
and even enhance it by making integration of the detection system into larger
experiments or instruments an easy, straightforward endeavor.

PVCam
The standard 32-bit software interface for cooled CCD cameras from Teledyne
Princeton Instruments. It is a library of functions that can be used to control and
acquire data from the camera when a custom application is being written. For
example, in the case of Windows, PVCam is a dynamic link library (DLL). Also, it
should be understood that PVCam is solely for camera control and image
acquisition, not for image processing. PVCam places acquired images into a
buffer, where they can then be manipulated using either custom written code
or by extensions to other commercially available image processing packages.

LightField
The ProEM camera can be operated using LightField, Teledyne Princeton
Instruments' 64-bit Windows
LightField combines complete control over Teledyne Princeton Instruments'
cameras and spectrographs with easy-to-use tools for experimental setup, data
acquisition and post-processing. LightField makes data integrity priority #1 via
automatic saving to disk, time stamping and retention of both raw and
corrected data with full experimental details saved in each file. LightField works
seamlessly in multi-user facilities, remembering each user's hardware and
software configurations and tailoring options and features accordingly. The
optional, patent-pending IntelliCal™ package is the highest-performance
wavelength calibration software available, providing up to 10X greater accuracy
across the entire focal plane than competing routines.
