mcmaster notes
Apogee Alta U2 from eBay. MSRP is about $6k, was $800 which was the best I could find for a cooled CCD with USB
2018-05-22
- Ubuntu 16 on main laptop
- [1]
- What was the relationship between libapogee and indi?
- IIRC libapogee got discontinued
- However, they didn't move the examples over
- Should reach out to the devs
- Using indi
- [2]
- 58b26c584049e1b9ecd55aa5f4a225677a417898
- Cooled CCD (Alta U2) frontside optical emissions imaging test: unable to see any activity despite 1 hour exposure + histogram equalization (raw image appears black)
- Used minipro
- [3]
- I think
Some commands I ran
mcmaster@phantom:~/doc/sw/libapogee/libapogee-3.0.3234$
./configure --enable-python-wrapper
- sudo apt-get install -y libcurl4-openssl-dev libboost-regex1.58.0 libboost-regex-dev libboost-regex1.58-dev python-dev swig cdbs libcfitsio-dev libnova-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libjpeg-dev libusb-dev libtiff5-dev libftdi-dev fxload libkrb5-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev libraw-dev libgphoto2-dev libgsl0-dev dkms libboost-regex-dev libgps-dev libdc1394-22-dev
- hmm conflicts
sudo apt-get install -y libboost-regex1.58.0 libboost-regex-dev libboost-regex1.58-dev python-dev swig cdbs libcfitsio-dev libnova-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libjpeg-dev libusb-dev libtiff5-dev libftdi-dev fxload libkrb5-dev libraw-dev libgphoto2-dev libgsl0-dev dkms libboost-regex-dev libgps-dev libdc1394-22-dev
sudo apt-get install -y libcurl4-openssl-dev
sudo apt-get install -y indi-apogee indi-sbig kstars kstars-data kstars-data-extra-tycho2 libapogee-dev libapogee2
mcmaster@phantom:~/doc/sw/libapogee/libapogee-3.0.3234/examples$ LD_LIBRARY_PATHA=/home/mcmaster/doc/ext/indi/3rdparty/libapogee ./SimpleExposure && python decode.py
Apogee Alta Simple Exposoure Sample
Connected to Alta camera
Cam Info:
model = AltaU-2
max # imaging rows = 1024 max # imaging cols = 1536
Starting a 0.03 sec light exposure
Retrieving image data from camera
Writing image to file
Closing connection to camera
mv simpleExposure.{bin,png} ref

- Did some tests a while back on main laptop
- Setting up to run on uvforge laptop
2018-08-27
sudo apt-get install -y libboost-regex1.58.0 libboost-regex-dev libboost-regex1.58-dev python-dev swig cdbs libcfitsio-dev libnova-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libjpeg-dev libusb-dev libtiff5-dev libftdi-dev fxload libkrb5-dev libraw-dev libgphoto2-dev libgsl0-dev dkms libboost-regex-dev libgps-dev libdc1394-22-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev cmake
git clone [4]
pushd indi/3rdparty/libapogee
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make -j$(nproc)
popd
tar -xf libapogee-3.0.3234.tar
cd libapogee-3.0.3234/examples
LD_LIBRARY_PATHA=/home/mcmaster/doc/ext/indi/3rdparty/libapogee ./SimpleExposure && python decode.py
maybe just try using lindi directly
sudo apt-get install libnova-dev libcfitsio-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev zlib1g-dev libgsl-dev build-essential cmake git libjpeg-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev
sudo apt-get install libftdi-dev libgps-dev libraw-dev libgphoto2-dev libboost-dev libboost-regex-dev librtlsdr-dev libftdi1-dev libfftw3-dev
libapogee
What I used to get my early results. Works, but not reliably (sometimes image shows large splotch bands, almost like integration didn't start/stop correctly)
wget [5]
tar -xf libapogee-3.0.3234.tgz
cd libapogee-3.0.3234
sed -i s/-lboost_regex-mt/-lboost_regex/ apogee/Makefile*
./configure
make -j$(nproc)
micromanager
2018-08-28
Followed instructions in Apogee official pdf
Got it to pickup, heard fan speed change
C_\Program Files\Micro-Manager-1.4\MMConfig_apogee.cfg
Got this working pretty quickly. Seems to work more reliably than the Apogee demo app
