Software Downloads
Downloadable binaries and links to documentation and example source code for Excelitas' Axsun OCT products.
NOTE: Software versions labeled "current release" will be maintained and available for download permanently. Intermediate versions labeled "stable pre-release" are recommended for new designs (to take advantage of bug fixes and new features), but may be removed upon completion of the next release cycle. Versions older than the current release are not recommended for new applications but are available here for legacy systems.
GUI Tools
OCT Host documentation can be found here. OCT Host is available for Windows only. The corresponding AxsunOCTControl.dll API version always matches the OCT Host version in a 1:1 fashion.
Image Capture Tool documentation can be found here. Image Capture Tool is available for Windows only and depends on the AxsunOCTCapture library.
Hardware Control Tool documentation can be found here. Hardware Control Tool is available for Windows only and depends on the AxsunOCTControl or AxsunOCTControl_LW libraries.

USB Device Driver
(applicable to Axsun Laser Engine, Ethernet/PCIe DAQ, and Camera Link DAQ)
There are no separate downloads for the USB device driver. Device drivers are installed automatically during the installation of OCT Host & AxsunOCTControl on Windows OS, or manually using Zadig.exe during the installation of AxsunOCTControl_LW on Windows OS. AxsunOCTControl_LW on Linux OS uses the usbfs kernel driver which is included in the distribution.
Sample OCT Data
Axsun OCT image data files (*.dat) are created by the AxsunOCTCapture library using the
axSaveFile() command or the corresponding button in the Image Capture Tool. These files can only be interpreted by the AxsunOCTCapture library via the axLoadFile() command or the corresponding button in the Image Capture Tool. These sample data files are NOT intended to demonstrate any particular level of OCT image quality, but are available in a range of data types to aid the developer in software installation and API integration efforts.Filename

Device Firmware & FPGA Bitstreams
(applicable to Axsun Laser Engine, Ethernet/PCIe DAQ, and Camera Link DAQ)
Please contact us for more information on updating your device's firmware or FPGA bitstream. Depending on the current firmware version, a device may need to be requalified or have some non-volatile settings reconfigured after an upgrade. We will help ensure compatibility with your preferred library versions and other device firmware prior to sending binaries or scheduling a remote upgrade and re-qualification via screen sharing.
