Aidong,

I had a similar issue with the latest version of HKL2000. I had outsmarted 
myself by using symbolic links to the HKL executables. The HKL paths must be 
setup correctly for it to be able to find all the files necessary to read and 
decode the .h5 files.

Best regards
Mark

Probably it is the reason. We are working on upgrading our HKL and getting a 
new license. I will let you know when our problem is solved. Thank you so much.

Dear Aidong,

As Dr. Förster has rightly pointed out you need to have the latest version of 
HKL2000 to work with the HDF5 files from the Eiger detectors and as you must be 
aware the HKL2000 license should include use of Eiger detectors. We have 
recently used HKL2000 to process data from MASSIF-3 beamline at ESRF which uses 
a EIGER X 4M detector but we had to upgrade to the latest version of HKL2000.

With regards,
Raghu

Dear Aidong,

as I don't have access to HKL2000 myself, I can't tell you what might need to 
be done to have the software display EIGER X 16M images.  Wladek showed me that 
it was possible.  It might just be a question of getting the latest version.

There are alternatives to HKL-2000.

DIALS can process EIGER data with no questions asked 
(https://dials.github.io/<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdials.github.io%2F&data=02%7C01%7Cmawhite%40UTMB.EDU%7Cba1b45b08f604fa323ae08d546b9bc75%7C7bef256d85db4526a72d31aea2546852%7C0%7C0%7C636492685899979355&sdata=lB3aT%2Bir%2BK5prk0n2q8CBqm%2Fxrpskq2xYKXnBFkFbXk%3D&reserved=0>).
  It is free, open-source software.  DIALS exists as a powerful command line 
tool but can also be run through the xia2 pipeline 
(https://xia2.github.io/<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fxia2.github.io%2F&data=02%7C01%7Cmawhite%40UTMB.EDU%7Cba1b45b08f604fa323ae08d546b9bc75%7C7bef256d85db4526a72d31aea2546852%7C0%7C0%7C636492685899979355&sdata=lE2O25oE%2Fi7jdvP744i0uYeax3KxBuCYY%2BfPShcWeoA%3D&reserved=0>).
  Both are part of CCP4, but I'd recommend installing the latest DIALS nightly 
because development is rapid.  The developers respond quickly to questions.

XDS can process EIGER data 
(http://xds.mpimf-heidelberg.mpg.de/html_doc/XDS.html<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fxds.mpimf-heidelberg.mpg.de%2Fhtml_doc%2FXDS.html&data=02%7C01%7Cmawhite%40UTMB.EDU%7Cba1b45b08f604fa323ae08d546b9bc75%7C7bef256d85db4526a72d31aea2546852%7C0%7C0%7C636492685899979355&sdata=O1VuKwyc3dBTOI3k51ogZTGaa%2FCsa7C%2F%2FhVJBbAMxc0%3D&reserved=0>).
  It is free to academic users.  To process data in HDF5 format (*.h5), make 
sure to download the neggia plugin 
(https://www.dectris.com/support/downloads/software/neggia<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dectris.com%2Fsupport%2Fdownloads%2Fsoftware%2Fneggia&data=02%7C01%7Cmawhite%40UTMB.EDU%7Cba1b45b08f604fa323ae08d546b9bc75%7C7bef256d85db4526a72d31aea2546852%7C0%7C0%7C636492685899979355&sdata=W7bRF%2FoM2s4DcoOhSgdmpK7YbCwjvA2ymVNR7ewXJWI%3D&reserved=0>,
 free, but registration required) and adjust the LIB= parameter to point to 
where the plugin is saved.  XDS is a command line tool, but several GUIs exist.

Please give DIALS or XDS a try and tell me how you get along.  If you continue 
to encounter problems, let me and the beamline staff at SSRF know.

All best.



Andreas

Hi All,

We have recently collected several data sets in the Shanghai synchrotron 
facility with a newly installed Eiger 16M. However, we are not able to process 
these data using our home HKL2000 package. Even though we can easily add this 
detector in, we can not display images. I believe ours has not been properly 
set up. While we are still waiting for a response from HKL2000 administration 
managers (it has been a few days), I wonder whether someone can provide me your 
solution since this detector has been in market for more than a year. Thank you 
for your help.

Sincerely,

Aidong
