SilverFast Ai is high-end scan and imaging software from LaserSoft Imaging which is now available for the Heidelberg scanners for Macintosh. SilverFast Ai combines an intuitive user interface with highest professionality. Beginners and professionals will appreciate the intelligent automatic functions as well as the possibility to manually adjust the image at any point. SilverFast Ai assures amazing quality especially with the STUDIO option which reduces noise and increases Dynamic Range.
Main highlights are:

• Real-Time Correction on large Preview
• Auto-Adjust with Artificial Intelligence
• Selective Colour Correction
• Predictable Colour with CMYK Softproof
• ICC Colour Management with IT8 Calibration
• Unique Unsharp Masking and Focus Control

The unique workflow guidance with ScanPilot helps the novice user to follow the optimum workflow to get to a brilliant image right from the start.

• SRD- Dust and Scratch Removal
• SCC - Advanced Selective Colour Correction
• ACR - Adpative Colour Restoration
• SC2G - Selective Colour to Grey
• GANE - Grain and Noise Elimination
• MidPip4 - Advanced Colour Cast Removal
• STUDIO upgrade available for efficient Noise reduction and Dynamic Range increase available
• QuickTime Movie Tutorials

• CMS: Direct matching from input/scanner profile to monitor profile can now be used if no color working space has been selected.
• Auto Frame Detection - automatically creates frames for all images in the prescan
• NegaFix enhanced - automatically reduces colorcasts when scanning negatives
• New NegaFix Profiles allow for more detailed corrections.
• SilverFast Ai-HDR Gamma Optimization further synchronizes 48bit scanning between SilverFast Ai / Ai Studio and image editing with SilverFast HDR / HDR Studio.

• Auto-Rotation and Manual Rotation
• Now Photoshop CS3 compatible
• New eciRGBv2 working space included in all SilverFast Ai/HDR/DCPro (Studio) versions

• Fully Automatic IT8-Calibration: Added a new feature that improves the IT8 calibration. The IT8 target will be recognized automatically and performs all steps until reporting success.
• Scan frame: Look of scan frame changed. Instead of cross-hairs for rotating half-arcs can be used now. Also active frame is blinking in order to be noticed easier.

• IMPROVEMENT: iSRD: iSRD now corrects even more image defects.
• BUGFIX: IT8 calibration: Corrected routines in IT8 calibration which formerly lead to trouble if the target had been placed mirrored on or into the scanner.
• iSRD: Improved prevention of possible artifacts occuring with use of iSRD with too high setting values.
• IMPROVEMENT: General: Changed the way the scan frames are shown in preview.
• Multi-Exposure: Improved reliability when aligning the scans.
• BUGFIX: Howtek: On Windows a "SCSI Adapter not found" error occured - fixed.
• General: Photoshop (or other apps using the SilverFast Photoshop plug-in version, incl. the SF_Launcher) could crash after a batch scan - fixed.

This driver supports the following devices:

• U.S. Robotics 56K Fax PCI
• U.S. Robotics 56K Voice PCI
• Unimodem Half Duplex Wave Device

The CP-132 Series of 2-port serial boards is designed for RS-422/485 industrial communication. CP-132 serial boards support 2 independent RS-422 or RS-485 ports, with each port able to control up to 32 devices in a multidrop environment. This series of PCI 2-port serial boards provides a reliable communication link (RS-422/485) over a longer distance (up to 4000 ft), and is suitable for industrial environments.

By using ADDC(Automatic Data Direction Control) intelligence, applications can easily manage half-duplex RS-485 ports data transmission and receiving without the need for writing extra code. In addition, on-chip hardware flow control and built-in termination resistors guarantee data integrity, and optical isolation and surge protection options are also available to deliver high reliability. All of the above attributes make the CP-132 Series of multiport serial boards suitable for harsh industrial applications.
