-====== CCD Camera ======+====== WinCamD ======
  
-The Camera is from Conrad.+The Camera we are using belongs to the Chip experiment.
  
 ===== Technical Data ===== ===== Technical Data =====
  
-https://www.conrad.de/de/ccd-platinenkamera-sw-a1-pro-190974.html+TaperCamD20-15–UCD23:  
 + * WinCamD with 20 x 15 mm 2.27:1 FO taper on the sensor 
 + * 2/3" CCD sensor for CW Pulsed, 1360 x 1024 pixels 
 + * Pixelsize: **ATTENTION** The manual states, it is 6.45 µm. But taking the physical dimension (20x15 cm) and amount of pixels into account, it is rather **14.6772 µm**, which is approximately 2.27 * 6.45
  
-===== Data sheet =====+If you have a TaperCamD series camera, press **Alt S** to reach the WinCamD Capture Setup dialog, and enter the appropriate PMF value in the WinCamD capture screen. 
 + * TaperCamD20  - 15 - UCD23 Pixel multiply factor = **2.27** 
 +Also enter the correct wavelength.
  
 +**Congratulations**. You have successfully completed installation. =)
 +
 +
 +===== Shortcuts =====
 +Capture setup dialog: Alt+S
 +Start measurement: Press G
 +Stop measurement: Press S
 +
 +===== Troubleshooting =====
 +Sometimes the camera is not getting recognized. Open the capture setup dialog (Alt+S) and unplug + plug the camera. Now, the program should recognize the camera.
 +
 +===== Power Limits =====
 +Power >2.5 x (Beam diam in mm) W, or >10 W total, may damage the ND filter. 
 +The limit is lower for pulsed lasers, especially ns & fs lasers.
