The FG-7 frame grabber is intended for use in general scientific imaging, whether bright field or low light. It is especially suited for flourescence imaging and gel documentation systems. The FG-7 can control on-chip integrating cameras and its video output may be connected to a video printer, providing a complete and economical documentation system. Either raw video, or images that have been enhanced and annotated may be output to the printer with the FG-7.

The FG-7 has a number of features which make it suitable for a high quality, low cost imaging workstation. Its small 7" size enables it to fit in any Macintosh or PC compatible with a PCI slot. There is an optional video printer remote line which will actuate a video printer. In addition an external trigger line may be used to synchronize to external events. The FG-7 comes complete with all necessary cabling. ImageJ modules, TWAIN modules, and a complete software development kit are included at no extra charge.

The FG-7 requires a personal computer running Windows 2000 or higher, or Mac OS X 10.4 or higher.  It may be used in any Macintosh or PC compatible with any size PCI slot. It is not compatible with PCI Express slots. It may be used with grayscale video sources as long as they adhere to either RS-170 or CCIR timing characteristics. The FG-7 may not be used with composite color video signals as in the interest of grayscale fidelity, the video signal is not filtered to remove color information.
