** You can visually draw a custom sub-image in the display area by clicking the white square to the right of the sub-image options. This will display a red region which can be manipulated to select the desired sub-image. Click the square again to hide the region in the display area. NOTE: YOU WILL NEED TO CAPTURE A FRAME BEFORE YOU CAN SELECT A SUB-FRAME USING THIS METHOD.
* Below this, the readout speed and preamp gain may be set. Higher readout speeds allow for shorter exposure times, but at the expense of noisier data.
* The last setting is the Electron Multiplying (EM) gain. NOTE: DO NOT USE ELECTRON MULTIPLYING MODE UNLESS YOU HAVE SPECIFICALLY OBTAINED PERMISSION FROM DR AMANDA GULBIS TO DO SO, AND YOU UNDERSTAND HOW AND WHEN TO USE IT. PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE SENSOR CAN RESULT FROM INCORRECT USAGE. If you are using EM mode, choose the EM output amplifier, and then select a gain. BEGIN WITH LOW GAIN VALUES!, BECAUSE IF THERE IS TOO MUCH SIGNAL''' YOU CAN DAMAGE THE CAMERA.'''
* To get a quick view of the images that will result, press the "Preview" button. Images will be displayed in the left-hand display panel. Press "Stop" when you're done.
* To begin collecting data, press the "Start" button. The kinetic series will start, either immediately or at the designated time if using the GPS, and the data will be spooled to disk. At the same time, temporary images will be displayed in the image display area.
