Hi --
Can't speak specifically to the Andor CCD. I can speak to the SBIG ST6i and
a PixelVision equipped with a thinned, backside illuminated SiTE chip. The
former was a serial interface. The latter called DLL
functions to a PC interface card. Have written LV interfaces for both of
them.
To partially answer your question anyway, LV can be used to successfully
interface CCD
cameras. I was doing some development on a Raman instrument as I suppose
you are doing also.
Took a couple of phone calls to their engineers as both companies
documentation
required a little clarification but all said and done it was a relatively
painless process.
