camera contains a large array (such as a 2048x2048 array), and the DMA buffer
size is too small, there will not be enough space in memory for the data set.
4. Open Setup|Environment|Environment dialog box.

Mb or 128 Mb if it is currently 64 Mb), click on OK, and close the WinX
application software.
6. Reboot your computer.
7. Restart the WinX application software and begin acquiring data or focusing. If

Removing/Installing a Plug-In Module
The ST-133 Controller has three plug-in slots. The Analog/Control module (leftmost slot
when the controller is viewed from the rear) and the Interface Control module (either a
TAXI or a USB 2.0 compatible module in the middle slot) are always provided. The third
slot, however, is covered with a blank panel unless a PTG module has been installed in
the ST-133.
If a module is ever removed for any reason, internal settings should not be disturbed.
Changing a setting could radically alter the controller’s performance. Restoring normal
operation again without proper equipment and guidance would be very difficult, and it
might be necessary to return the unit to the factory for recalibration.
Note: If you have an installed PTG and are changing from one interface type to another
(TAXI to USB 2.0 or USB 2.0 to TAXI), contact Customer Support for specific
changeover instructions. See page 232 for contact information.
1. Always turn the Controller OFF before removing or installing a module. If a
module is removed or installed when the controller is powered, permanent
equipment damage could occur which would not be covered by the warranty.
2. Before handling any boards, take precautions to prevent electrostatic discharge
(ESD). The modules are susceptible to ESD damage. Damage caused by
improper handling is not covered by the Warranty.
