Helpful Hints for Proper Operation

1. Choice of Operating System and Interface Cards

While the Sharkeye™ can be operated under most Microsoft operating systems,

it is STRONGLY recommended that Microsoft Windows 2000 be used. This

results in the most stable platform and least amount of installation problems,

especially with respect to the FireWire interface.

We also recommend using OrangeMicro Firewire adapters (either PCI or

PCMCIA) other cards, notable the ATI DV card can cause connection problems.

The RS-485 adapter can be used with any standard PC RS-232 port. If a true

RS-485 link is desired, we recommend the Quatech FastCOMM-422 PCI card.

We have not found any PCMCIA RS-485 adapter to work suitably, use of an RS-

232 port and the supplied adapter is recommended.

2. FireWire link and Strobe Photography

Firing of an attached strobe can cause the PC to lose a Firewire link to the

camera. It is strongly recommended that when a strobe is in use that the RS-485

link be used.

3. Out-of-Water Photography:

In order to maximize light sensitivity underwater, the Sharkeye™ camera does

not incorporate an Infrared cutoff filter in it’s optics. This will cause images

acquired out of the water to have a more yellowish cast than normal and for other

colors to be washed out. Additional processing in an image manipulation

software package (such as Adobe Photoshop) can correct some of this.
