Edge fast scan doesn't work

[tfarago]

When I tried to use the fast scan with uca-camera-control I got time timeouts when tried to run it and on a stop attempt I got Failed to stop: libpco error a0000005.

This is clearly a problem, but how should I fix it? Remotely, is a pain since I cannot reset it easily. Should this be part of the march beam time?

[tfarago]

Nope, I can bring it to you if you want.

I cannot fix this. As soon as either pixel rate or scan mode is set, the connection to the camera is lost. Killing the process and starting again works though. Unfortunately, I don't see any way how to work around that.

And the next time you connect is the pixel rate what it was before or what you had tried to set before it crashed?

[matze]

Technically it's not crashing … but anyway, the rate/mode is set to the desired value.

And it works when you try to grab the frames? For me it didn't work. Anyway, let's have a live look at this tomorrow morning.
