Installation on the instrument computers¶

Only processing-side of Leginon system is needed. This same procedure should be
performed on each instrument computer you want to use Leginon on. Same procedure is to be repeated if new instrument is added.
For situation with the microscope operated at 2 different HT values which gives different magnification set, such as EFTEM mode vs TEM mode, it is better dealt with as different microscope. Adding post-GIF camera on a scope with Leginon installed ... shows how to add a Tecnai subclass to give a new identity to the special mode.

You need to know what microscope and camera you are controlling before starting this.¶
