New Software Release

[numidan]

If you are using Windows and a digital microscope for viewing your coins, then, this software maybe for you.

This is the official release of Coin Expert VCV3.0 free for personal use. Much has changed from the previous release.

What has changed?

• The main GUI window was given a traditional window's like interface using a menu bar instead of function keys. This gives the user access to the various features and tools that Coin Expert offers.

• The manual calibration was changed to an easier automatic calibration procedure. It reduces human errors introduced to improve accuracies of measurements and re-drawing of traces. Due to these improvements, previous trace saves will not load correctly. Thus, a new editing tool "Select trace" is available to make vertical and horizontal adjustments to the trace. Properly configured software will perform measurements at least 0.1mm .

• A real time histogram can be displayed to properly make adjustments to the lighting and camera's settings. This should improve the quality of pictures taken.

• Different ways to take snapshots of camera captured images are now available. A new tool called "Assembly" allows users to take 2 pictures (usually the obverse and reverse sides of the coins) and save it as a jpg picture file with or without a frame, landscape or portrait format. A digital zoom feature can be activated ahead of time and used to adjust the size of image to fit within the frame.

• An image file can be loaded and used to make traces. Under view, the user will be able to switch between the image file and the camera's captured frames to perform real-time analysis using the traces and determine differences between them.

• All setting are saved when quitting the software and are loaded when starting the software. Changes can be made through the CElanguage3.ini file.

• Changes to the right click menu.

• The "Comment" tool was removed in this release.

Need a little help!....This program is using my PC camera, instead of my digital microscope! How do you change camera config? I can't find that info in the PDF file.

What kind of digital microscope are you using? Is it using a directx (UVC) driver?

Normally the software will start and ask you to select the device.

You can try manually to set the device.

Locate CElanguage3.ini file and open it up with a text editor.

Change value for "Device =" ... if it is 0 then 1, if it is 1 then 0

... -1 value will show a dialog box to select a device when there are more than one.

Save file and start the software.

Keep me posted.

Sorry, for dialog box option do not use the value of "-1" !

Just leaving it empty --> Device=

The digital microscope is a "Microcapture" USB, made by Leuchtturm. 2.0 megapixel (20x to 200x). Not sure of the driver. I will try to select the device, per your instructions. Thanks.
