Version 2.87.30000.0

New features:

• Clara E now supported

• Newton DU970/71P cameras now supported

• Cycle time reduced for imaging on Newton and iVac systems

• Number of accumulations can now be set in a kinetic series in overlap mode

• FVB cycle time reduced in crop mode provided only the height of the sensor has been cropped

Bug fixes:

• Clara near infra red mode not operating correctly when using FVB read mode

• Minimum exposure time increased to 1 millisecond for Clara near infra red mode

• Change to remove odd/even pixel noise after a number of accumulations in iDus

• Change to resolve image wrap around on Newton sensors

• Image was being shifted between frames when photon counting was being used on a Clara

• Fast kinetics now working in FVB mode

• First pulse missed in ring of exposures on Clara

• Updated bitmap header data to allow avi's to play in Windows 7

• Multiple systems was not supported for 64-bit Windows

• TimeStamp from Clara meta data was incorrect for a kinetic series of accumulations

• Video mode was eventually freezing in iCam PCI systems

• Fix for Spooling to fits issue in Windows 7

• Fix for image shift seen in DU940P newton cameras
