51 | |||
52 | Some version of TIA may give an error of that at the end of it says |
||
53 | |||
54 | <pre> |
||
55 | _ctypes.COMError: (-2147352567, 'Exception occurred.', (u"Camera 'tia' does not exist.''.u'ESVision', None, 0L, 0)) |
||
56 | </pre> |
||
57 | This happens because TIA scripting (ESVision) knows the camera by a different name. |
||
58 | |||
59 | The correct name may be in TUI/CCDCamera panel. Or you can find out from these python commands when the camera in question is active (You can make it active by acquire an image in TIA). |
||
60 | <pre> |
||
61 | from pyscope import tia |
||
62 | t = tia.get_tiaccd() |
||
63 | c = t.ccd.Camera |
||
64 | </pre> |
||
65 | You should get the camera name as the output. |
||
66 | |||
67 | 7 | Anchi Cheng | With the name, edit pyscope/tia.py and change in the class TIA_Eagle, |
68 | 4 | Anchi Cheng | from |
