Please could someone help me on this, I have been miserable for a few days now trying to get it sorted to no avail. So I use a GPS1200 SmartRover and a GS09 system as well, and in the past, I just take out the CF-Card repetitively and plug it to my PC with a CF-Card-To-USB reader. That usually worked well until recently, I lost all the files in the CF-Card due to some sort of data corruption in the field. I think it is safer to keep the CF Card in the controller and extract the data with a USB cable instead, so I bought a GEV234 for that.

In short, I am trying to install the drivers of my Leica GEV234 cable in order to get it to work with my LGO 8.4 and transfer the data from my RX1250 and CS09 controllers into my PC, which is running Win10.

1. Went to myWorld portal, download the Drivers available for the GEV234 right there, there was a version for XP, Vista, 7 and the other version was for Win8. There was no readily-available driver for Win10, so I just downloaded what I found.

I know there are several threads on this already, but I've read through them and can't get a clear answer on this question: Out of the box, should the M11 be able to connect to a PC or Mac via USB-C cable and be shown as a browsable drive in Finder / File Explorer? I've seen the workaround involving Android File Transfer on Mac, so I guess I really just need to know about Windows. Is it not possible to connect the M11 without that "Mass Storage" USB mode?

I can only talk about Mac. The M11 is not shown/detected as a mass storage. But if You set the camera to ptp, You can see and download the files of the M11 with software that supports ptp. Lightroom is such a software.

I just realized a "big" advantage of the current connection method with Mac (PTP). Once you connect M11 to Mac, Lightroom open the import window and all images will be imported. Once you are done importing, you just disconnect the camera. There is no need to eject anything !!

I use Capture One Pro and use the internal storage of the M11 with the SD as a backup. I use Image Capture app on the Mac OS to connect to the M11 via USB (PTP) and download the images from the internal storage to a folder named "C1 Import Folder". This seems to transfer the images very quickly.

Once downloaded I just hit the import button in C1 (sessions) which is set to import all images from that folder. It takes less than a second to transfer them into sessions and afterwards, I delete the files from the import folder (I ticked ignore duplicates just in case I forget to delete the files from that folder.) I use a USB C 3.2 cable with a right angle plug for the camera side.

Windows does not require the *ejecting* of any connected device in normal settings. They managed to sort this out in Windows 7. Only Mac retains this stupidity. They could sort it out. They just don't. One of Macs annoyances. You'll note the iPads and iPhones don't have this limitation either.

I checked it on Windows 11: the eject symbol is visible when attaching a mass storage USB device, e.g., an SD card. However, no eject is possible or required when connecting M11 via PTP, similar to Mac.

Hi gordon, are you saying that if formatted in exFAT, it is writable and readable on both windows and mac os? It could be useful for external drive backup since i still run on windows and ipad for now, and might add macbook soon

In this case, it is important that the serial cable between your USB to serial adapter and your microscope is a null modem cable (Null modem - Wikipedia). Also make sure that you select the Leica DMR adapter, and that your serial port settings are correct (see: LeicaDMR - Micro-Manager). If the scope still does not respond, try the same advice I just wrote for the Zaber stage problem (Connection fails when configuring Zaber controller with Micro-manager), which would establish if there is any communication at all.

Does that scope have a DB9 (9 pin connector) to talk to the computer? If your computer does not have one of those, you will need a USB to serial adapter. The driver on the Leica DMI page is for newer microscopes that have a build-in USB to serial converter (which turns out to be a big pain since Leica is not providing signed drivers).

Hi @nicost, that makes sense. We are using a 9 pin- USB converter, and it seems to be working. The main issue is to have uManager to recognize the microscope once it is connected to the computer using the 9 pin connector.
Is there any other driver you think I could try?

The problem is, connectivity to it is through a TWAIN (16-bit) driver. I have an XP laptop for communications with old cameras (like my EOS-1D), but I don't have any software that can use the TWAIN driver. The EOS 1D came with Photoshop 5 LE, but that wants a TWAIN_32 driver. This also seems to be the case for Windows itself and for the NDP2 scanner app.

64 bit Windows 10 doesn't support 16 bit applications. You could use a Windows XP virtual machine using the built in VM Hyper V. Otherwise you could use a PC having the 32 bit version of Windows 10 and use this method -16-bit-application-support-windows-10/

Update on this... I found that, at the bottom of the opendrivers page, there was also a link to a "backup" server that did allow download of the "newer" (2001 or so) TWAIN32 driver for the DCS400 series.

I was not able to install this driver on Windows XP until I ran the installer in Windows 95 compatibility mode. That allowed it to be installed, but it cannot find the camera when launched. I suspect that this driver is hard-coded to use 16-bit ASPI. The camera is detected by Windows itself, so the issue is not a problem with the SCSI adapter anything else SCSI, but the driver definitely uses ASPI and its notes state that Windows 2000 and Windows Me are not supported, which probably means XP isn't meant to work either.

I ended up building a Windows 98 SE laptop, and installing on that the TWAIN32 driver for DSC4xx and the Adaptec (4.71, I believe) ASPI driver. With that, I was able to use Photoshop 5 to launch the TWAIN driver and connect to the camera over an Adaptec 1460 SlimSCSI card and cable.

The Fujifilm X100VI is the sixth iteration of Fujifilm's classically-styled large sensor compact. A 40MP X-Trans sensor, in-body stabilization and 6.2K video are the major updates, but do they make the camera better?

It is possible that the driver installation worked. Did you try connecting the microscope through the USB cable to the computer and look in the Windows Device Manager to see if the serial port is listed there?

The Leica M10 was announced on January 17, 2017, four days short of five years ago. I was in Wetzlar for the launch, which was a wonderful affair. First of all, we were wined and dined and then, after the presentation, the store was opened and you could go and buy your own camera. I know several people who were so excited that they bought both a chrome and a black camera!

The M10 has been a sparkling success, with lots of variants over the last five years, including the M10 Monochrom, the M10-D without a display screen, the M10-P with a touch screen and a quieter shutter, culminating in the M10-R with the improved 40MP sensor.

I think that many people have been feeling that the M10-R is really the ultimate M, with a wonderful sensor, quiet and subtle shutter noise, the size of the M3 and a refined and accurate rangefinder. I must say, having been using the M10-R since 2019, I was very much feeling that nothing else was needed.
