Gatan OneView camera and GMS3
Here are a few information on the OneView camera and the control in GMS3:
General info
- CMOS camera with 4096 x 4096px (pixel size: 15µm) --> 61.4 x 61.4mm sensor size; conversion efficiency @300kV: 26.42 ADC counts/Prim e- (our camera)
- Imaging mode: 25fps for full 4k x 4k resolution (single frame exposure time: 0.04s); 100fps @ 2k x 2k; 200fps @ 1k x 1k; 300fps @ 512 x 512
- Diffraction mode: about 7fps for full 4k x 4k (single frame exposure time: 0.16s)
- drift correction available
- In in situ mode: look back option available up to 20s
Operation
1. If GMS3 (Gatan Microscopy Suite; also known as Digital Micrograph) is not running on the separate computer (large screen) yet, click on the GMS icon and acknowledge any information message.
2. Check in the Camera Monitor that the temperature is -5°C. Else, wait until it reaches this temperature.
3. On the Microscope PC, the software Gatan Remote should be running in the background. If not, start this software.
4. Make sure you are an Power User. Click on Help in the top task bar and select Power User under User Mode. Now you have all relevant settings and properties available.
5. On the left hand side under Microscope, GMS shows the visualization of the TEM. Here, HT and Magnification should be the same as in the Microscope PC. Clicking on Valves will open or close the Column Valves, Blank will blank the beam before the sample, clicking on the Phosphorous screen will lift or lower the screen. Right click on the OneView camera icon opens a context menu, where the camera can be inserted or retracted.
!!! The Ultrascan camera needs to be retracted before inserting the OneView camera !!!
6. On the frontpage right hand side, you find the Technique Manager. Under TEM you find TEM imaging and In-situ imaging.
image acquisition
1. Choose TEM imaging under Technique Manager for general image acquisition.
2. Options:
- I for imaging mode, D for diffraction mode; binning from 4k down to 512px (when changing mode/binning, wait a minute for the electronics to stabilize again)
- Live and Capture to follow the sample on the camera and acquire individual images.
- The cogwheel icon opens additional options like auto save and how drift corrected images are handled.
