Entering pixel size impossible: Magnification list empty

Added by Anonymous almost 15 years ago

Hi all,

in the Calibrations application I cannot enter the pixel size...in the calibration dialog of the pixel size node, *no magnifications to choose from are displayed! *
The magnifications of the microscope are known to Leginon (for instance in the drop down list in the instrument node) and also in the DB (checked by phpmyadmin).

There is an (unrelated?) error message: "The application called on interface that was marshalled for a different thread."

I would appreciate your help very much!

Cheers

This could be the reason, but let me know if you have already done this...
The calibration nodes all need to be aware of what TEM/Camera you are using. This is done in one of two ways:

a) use Presets Manager to send a preset to the instrument ("To Scope" button). Calibration nodes are notified of the preset change and this selects a TEM and camera for them.

b) Each node can select the TEM/Camera in their own settings dialog. Turn on the checkbox to "override preset" and then select a TEM and Camera.

If you intend for Presets Manager to handle the TEM/camera selection, be sure the "override preset" option is turned off.

Let me know if that helps.

Also, I will ask our system administrator to help with your question about port forwarding, because I do not know enough about networking to help with that one.

b) was, what I did and it leads to an empty list (and the error message). a) worked...This is great, thanks!
