Einscan-S working on iMac, Cinema Display, and a Thunderbolt MD Port to VGA adapter

[24c]

Hi

Following on from the MacBook Pro with Parallels 11 install, running Windows 8.1 Pro & successfully using the Einscan software, I decided to test the new to me Late 2013 iMac with 4GB Graphics Card.

i loaded up Parallels 11 on the new iMac, installed Windows 8.1 Pro and Einscan-S V1.5 software.
Configured desktops so that's 2560x1440 x2 and 800x600 for Einscan-S
Calibrated scanner, and completed a test colour scan.

Screenshots, from screen 1 (OS X), 2 (Windows), & projector (white screen)

Very smooth and a lot faster than the Early 2011 Macbook Pro, as well as gaining another screen into the bargain, as the newer machine has an extra Thunderbolt port.
I can now work on something else on the Mac platform whilst the scanner does its stuff on the turntable. Obviously when I am doing Free scans I won't be able to do anything else.

PS The only thing of note, was I disabled USB3 in Parallels, and used a powered D Link USB2 hub to connect the cameras.
PPS You don't need to buy the subscription version of Parallels AFAIK, you can by the standalone versioning instal Visual Studio on this.
