C-sharp windows example
This is C# example of the Windows program with list devices, simple measurement and view of the output data. Timepix3 only.
Notes:
- Use the release/64 bit configuration
- The working directory is directory with the exe file. Typically project\bin\Release. Copy pixet.ini and other auxilliary files here.
- In the MS Visual studio 2019, project first not working. You must click Properties, change .NET version to old, save it, change .NET version back to actual and save. Now project can work.
Window
Create window with components:
- lstMsg - Listbox for messages
- lstDevs - Listbox for devices list
- btnInit - Button for init the Pixet core
- btnClearMsg - Button for clear lstMsg
- btnExit - Button for exit the Pixet Core
- pbFrame1 - Picturebox for first output subframe, sixe equal 256x256 inside, Border Fixed3D
- pbFrame2 - Picturebox for second output subframe, sixe equal 256x256 inside, Border Fixed3D
- txtMeasTime - Textbox for measure time input, default text "1"
- rbOPM0 - Radiobutton for operation mode 0
- rbOPM2 - Radiobutton for operation mode 2
- checkLogView - Checkbox to enable logaritmized view
- checkColView - Checkbox to enable colorized view
- btnMeasSinTpx3 - Button to run the pxcMeasureSingleFrameTpx3 example measuring
- labImgInfo - Label for informations about measured images
