    How do i get RBI preflash on maxim DL 5? The settings in maximdl does not show me the settings mentioned in https://diffractionlimited.com/help/maximdl/HIDD_SETUPST7.htm

    My installed sbig universal version is 4.97 build 1. According to sbig driver Checker this is up to date. But this appears to be lower than the screenshot in the above link. I am wondering if this is the reason why I can't see the RBI option.

    RBI preflash was not officially supported in MaxIm DL until v6.12. If you need RBI preflash support, you will need to update to the latest version of MaxIm DL.

    MaximDL 5 can preflash on FLI. So is it the sbig driver that's not compatible on maxim5?
    What other software can currently do RBI preflash on STXL 16200?

    Regards

    RBI preflash is a function of the camera plugin, not MaxIm DL. FLI may have had support for RBI preflash in their v5 plugin, but the SBIG Universal plugin did not.

    We added RBI Preflash support to SBIG cameras in January 0f 2016, and around the same time added support into the MaxIm DL SBIG plug-in.

    MaxIm DL V5 development was discontinued in 2014.

    If you are a MaxIm DL V5 owner you can upgrade to V6 at a discounted price via our web site.

    Thanks Doug for clarifying this. What is the discount amount in the upgrade path?

    Please visit our website, browse to MaxIm DL, and click the Upgrade tab. Enter your serial number etc. and it will give you your options.
