h1. Special Instructions for FEI Eagle Camera
This only applies to 2.2 version. For trunk or newer installation, comtypes replaces this. See [[Installing comtypes]]
We are still in the process of adapting the comarray package to work with the FEI Eagle cameras. The pre-packaged comarray EXE installer that we provide here will not work, so you will need to download comarray from our SVN repository and do a manual installation of the python module to your python site-packages. Here is the procedure:
Check out comarray to your local sandbox on a linux system like this:<pre>
svn co http://emg.nysbc.org/svn/myami/trunk/comarray
</pre>
Then copy it to your Windows system that hosts the camera. Or just check it out directly to the Windows system using a Windows SVN client.
Now browse through the files in your new comarray sandbox. You will find a folder "py2.5". In there you will find a few files including:<pre>
__init__.py
NumpySafeArraySlow.py
NumpySafeArray.pyd
NumpySafeArrayTIA.pyd
setup.py</pre>
Make a new folder C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\comarray\
Copy "__init__.py" and "NumpySafeArrayTIA.pyd" to the new site-packages/comarray folder.
In the site-packages/comarray folder, rename NumpySafeArrayTIA.pyd to NumpySafeArray.pyd
