5. Operating the Camera

5.1 Preparations for Operation

Preparation for operation of a Stereo SharkEye™ system is the same as for the standard system. However, for the stereo

option the cameras should be linked with the Stereo Camera Link Cable prior to operation.

5.2 Activating the Camera

Activation of the stereo cameras is identical to the standard SharkEye™.

6. Stereo Camera Tethered Operation

Tethered operation of a stereo SharkEye™ system is only available via the RS-485 link. The FireWire (IEEE-1394) link

can be used to control the individual cameras (to download images for example), but dual camera operation is only

possible when using the RS-485 link.

6.1 Starting the SharkEye™ Desktop Application

The SharkEye™ can be used for both stereo and non-stereo applications. Use of basic features are identical in both

modes of operation, these are described in the standard manual. Functionality specific to stereo operation is described in

this manual.

Select the SharkEye™ application from the windows start menu. The application will start running and indicate that it is

waiting for a connection. If the application can not open the selected serial port an error message box will appear. You

can select a different serial port to resolve this problem. Once the application has started the camera can be connected

and turned on.

The SharkEye™ application (in dual camera view mode) is shown below:
