JEOL installation specifics

These implementations have pyscope modules included in our repository

JEOL 1230

Developed at New York Structure Biology Center

Please contact David Stokes

JEOL 1400 and 3200 (and other scopes with JEOL's COM library)

Developed at Northwestern University by Christian Suloway

Install 32-bit version of myami package on the associated camera computer

  • Instead of installing myami package on JEOL scope-controlling PC, the access to JEOLCOM usually work through the computer controlling the digital camera, regardless of the camera manufacturer.
  • In addition, probably because of the way JEOLCOM works, the installation is limited to 32-bit version.

Alternatively, install myami package on JEOL scope-controlling microscope

  • This is only possible if this PC has TEMExternal3 installed and if it is on the same secured network as Leginon processing and database server.

See JEOL External3 setup

Program package web site local copy of win32 installer

Notes from the developer:

There are a few conversion factor at the top of the file that may need adjustment depending on the microscope.
