Hi Michael,
Strange, when I open essai1.beamp I can read the card config (RTC5,
correction file, ...).
Yes, I did save as default config. I re-did it and hereby send to you
the file again.
Yes, I created the link libslrtc5.so since my in-house app uses it.
Another point: BeamConstruct keeps unchecking the "Invert Output Logic"
checkbox. Maybe it is not saved in the project?
Best regards,
Axel

Hi Axel,
sorry for th troubles and thanks for the -beamp-file. Unfortunately it did not
contain your scanner card configuration. May be you forgot to select menu item
"Save as default configuration" after you have set up your scanner card?
Just as an additional idea: the shared library that comes with Scanlab's driver
package is named "libslrtc5.so.1.10.1" while the RTC5 plug-in expects a
library
"libslrtc5.so". Can you please check if there really exists a symlink from
libslrtc5.so to libslrtc5.so.1.10.1?
Regarding the directory path that is not taken over from dialogue: I'll check
that, it seems to be a problem in BeamConstruct itself.
With kind regards
Michael
