Fcal with user devices

[LeidyMoraV]

Hello,
I currently have the Ascension Trackstar, Siemens P300 ultrasound, and the Epiphan frame grabber VGA2USB, and I linked all three hardware through PLUS to Slicer. Now I'm working in the calibration, in order to do that. Do I need to write a separate fcal config file? How can I write such configuration?
The config file that I write for the Device Set is the next one:
`

<Device
  Id="TrackerDevice"
  Type="Ascension3DG"
  FilterAcWideNotch="1"
  ToolReferenceFrame="Tracker"
  BaudRate="115200">
  <DataSources>
    <DataSource Type="Tool" Id="Reference" BufferSize="500" PortName="0" AveragedItemsForFiltering="20" />
    <DataSource Type="Tool" Id="Probe" BufferSize="500" PortName="1" AveragedItemsForFiltering="20" />
    <DataSource Type="Tool" Id="Stylus" BufferSize="500" PortName="2" AveragedItemsForFiltering="20" />
  </DataSources>
  <OutputChannels>
    <OutputChannel Id="TrackerStream">
      <DataSource Id="Reference" />
      <DataSource Id="Probe" />
      <DataSource Id="Stylus" />
    </OutputChannel>
  </OutputChannels>
</Device>
<Device
  Id="VideoDevice" 
  Type="Epiphan" >
  <DataSources>
    <DataSource Type="Video" Id="Video" PortUsImageOrientation="MF"  ImageType="RGB_COLOR"  />
  </DataSources>      
  <OutputChannels>
    <OutputChannel Id="VideoStream" VideoDataSourceId="Video" />
  </OutputChannels>
</Device>
<Device 
  Id="TrackedVideoDevice" 
  Type="VirtualMixer" >
  <InputChannels>
    <InputChannel Id="TrackerStream" />
    <InputChannel Id="VideoStream" />
  </InputChannels>
  <OutputChannels>
    <OutputChannel Id="TrackedVideoStream"/>
  </OutputChannels>
</Device>   
<Device
  Id="CaptureDevice"
  Type="VirtualCapture"
  BaseFilename="RecordingTest.igs.mha"
  EnableCapturingOnStart="FALSE" >
  <InputChannels>
    <InputChannel Id="TrackedVideoStream" />
  </InputChannels>
</Device>

Did you want to do calibration in fCal or in Slicer? If you wanted to do a calibration in fCal, I suggest you copy an existing fCal configuration file and modify it with your devices.
