File
Save Shot	Save current shot into internal 12-bit format file
Read Shot	Read shot 12-bit
Save as bmp	Save as 256 gray scale Windows bitmap
Make Model	Make some model beam (use this to learn program features)

Shot
12 bits	make 12-bit full screen shot
8 bits	make 8-bit full screen shot (disabled)
init CCD	initialize camera for operation (extra feature, not required, automatic initialization occur if not pressed)
Shot to 3D	pass image to main processing form
info Header	read info in header file (conditions of shot)
Add comment	add comment to info header of shot
Live
Live Run	Start live camera operation. See note on live ROI*
Live Stop	Stop live camera operation
3D live	Start live mode with 3D live visualization
Options
CCD parameters	Adjust camera parameters
Auto Set	disabled
Calibr CMOS	Calibrate Sensor on power. Laser of known output power required
ROI
Full ROI	Set whole 1280x1024 image read out
Mark ROI	Set some area to be read from camera in live mode and passed to processing.
Save ROI	Save position and size of the ROI for future use

*NOTE: ROI mode.
Use mark ROI to set program into ROI operation. In this mode Live screen and 3D live will operate for selected ROI area. Full shot will be still made for the whole image. Pressing shot to 3D "shot> 3D" button will pass ROI to main form for 3D/2D processing and visualization.
Use the ROI mode to work with small beam spots. This will considerably save PC resources and speed up the operation.
