SetOutputAmplifier
unsigned int WINAPI SetOutputAmplifier(int typ)
Description
Some EMCCD systems have the capability to use a second output amplifier. This
function will set the type of output amplifier to be used when reading data from the head
for these systems.
Parameters
int typ: the type of output amplifier.
0 – Standard EMCCD gain register (default)/Conventional(clara).
1 – Conventional CCD register/Extended NIR mode(clara).
Return
unsigned int

DRV_P1INVALID
Series length set.
System not initialized.
Acquisition in progress.
Output amplifier type invalid.
NOTE:
1. Available in Clara, iXon & Newton.
2. If the current camera HSSpeed is not available when the amplifier is set then it will default to
the maximum HSSpeed that is.
