Packages: Data Acquisition
Packages include individual Igor procedure files or collections of Igor procedure files that are related, as well as external operations (XOPs). To browse ALL projects (including those that have not been officially released) click on the Advanced Browse link above.
DAQ Procedures
Last changed: 9 weeks 1 day ago
Procedure files to help simplify data acquisition (DAQ) in Igor Pro. Includes separate files for GPIB, NIDAQmx, traditional NIDAQ, serial port, and VISA. Each file contains its own documentation.

Driving and Acquiring Data from UV-Vis Spectrophotometer
Last changed: 1 year 17 weeks ago
This is a very simple program to get parameters from the user for a UV-Vis absorption spectrum, and then drive the Milton-Roy Spectronic Genesys 2 UV-Vis spectrophotemeter to acquire the data and display it in real time.
The procedure is very basic, but it works. Please let me know of any bugs or mistakes.
The IGOR procedure file should contain adequate commenting. The procedure makes use of the VDT2 IGOR XOP (external operations). So, make sure that the appropriate XOP and help files are linked in your "IGOR Extensions" folder.

Expt Procedures
Last changed: 7 weeks 2 days ago
Template with an experiment file and several procedure files to help simplify data acquisition and management in Igor Pro. Includes generic data-taking routines, a convention for identifying data with unique serial numbers, procedure files to simplify data acquisition (see "DAQ Procedures" Project*) with GPIB, NIDAQ, serial port, and VISA, and procedure files to work with a few common SRS lockin amplifiers and Tektronix oscilloscopes. Each file contains its own documentation, and the experiment file contains a "GettingStarted" notebook.

NeuroAcquire
Last changed: 3 years 31 weeks ago
NeuroAcquire allows one to collect physiology and imaging data in a single instance of IGOR. Often, physiology and image acquisition are performed by different third party packages, which can complicate the timing and triggering of data collection. Our hope is that NeuroAcquire simplifies the coordinated acquisition of both types of data by having all controls under one roof. You will need an ITC18 DAQ board and a SIDX-supported CCD camera to use this program. Future versions may support other DAQ boards.

NIDAQmxBaseAccess XOP
Last changed: 4 years 11 weeks ago
The NIDAQmxBaseAccess XOP gives you access to functions defined by National Instruments' NI-DAQmx Base driver for multifunction data acquisition boards. This driver is available for Macintosh OS X; this is the only way to use National Instruments data acquisition devices on OS X.

Ocean Optics XOP
Last changed: 12 weeks 5 days ago
This XOP allows you to control and acquire data from Ocean Optics spectrometers.
We use it to acquire spectra from a USB2000+ spectrometer, but I believe that it should work for other spectrometers as well.
The download includes binaries and source code, and instructions on how to use the software.

SBIG Camera Driver
Last changed: 4 years 2 weeks ago
This package is an XOP which enables Igor Pro to control and take images with Santa Barbara Instruments Group (SBIG) cameras through SBIG's low-level driver routines. With it, you can write Igor Pro functions to script the behavior of an SBIG camera for whatever application you may have. The package includes the XOP, a help file, a user's manual, and a sample experiment that uses the XOP to implement a simple point-and-click panel for a camera. (See the picture.) The XOP is in Universal Binary format for Macintosh OS-X.

SOCKIT - a TCP/IP client for speaking and listening to network sockets using IGOR Pro
Last changed: 11 weeks 3 days ago
SOCKIT provides TCP/IP (IPv4/IPv6) network socket communication between a server and IGOR Pro (the client).
One can connect to a server then send and receive string messages with it. A string is just a collection of bytes, so you can send any collection of data you want.
The received messages are buffered to a text wave (optionally printed in the history window). One can also provide a 'processor function', which acts as an event handler for the message. One example of the processor function could be to act as a parser for Igor commands.
