Scion frame grabber card

Good evening,

I beg your pardon for sending a question, which is not LSM related at all,
even if it is related to one of our local LSM setups.


I have frequently bought and installed frame grabber cards from Scion
Corporation, chiefly the model FG7. However, the most recent time I had
been in contact with the company was 2004 or 2005, if I remember
correctly.

When I was looking for Scion's wepage,

www.scioncorp.com

the page would not display. Neither does there seem to be an obvious
choice between the webpages offered when googling Scion and Frame Grabber.

Is the company still active?

Thank you, indeed, for your consideration.

Best wishes,
Johannes

Fortunately, the company made the files needed to operate their cameras

However, we do not have any of these cameras and therefore can test
these instructions. Please update and clarify the following text!'/
