Install/update the software
The software to use with the PCN-1001 is contained on the CD-ROM that comes with the development kit of the
PCN-1001 (the DTK-1001-00).
For the latest software releases, please refer to
www.eurotech.com/en/download/PCN-1001 .
The main software packages to be used with your PCN-1001 are:
• pcn-1001-Imgserver
• pcn-1001-demo-win32
The pcn-1001-Imgserver
“ Imgserver ” is a daemon program that runs on the PCN-1001, it starts at boot time and performs the people
counting tasks. It accepts remote connections using both the RS485 and USB ports.
The PCN-1001 comes with
Imgserver ready installed and ready to work.
A copy of this program is also contained in the CD-ROM.
The pcn-1001-demo-win32
“pcn-1001-demo-win32” is a package (supported by Windows XP, Vista, and 7) that, when run on the Host PC,
installs both the “ WinClient ” and the “ RS485_GUI ” programs:
The WinClient
“ WinClient ” is a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that allows you to configure/debug the PCN-1001.
The WinClient software has been created to access and configure one PCN-1001 at a time.
The RS485_GUI
“ RS485_GUI ” is a program that can be used to simulate real working conditions where the Host PC or the
Control Unit (the main on-board computer, for example a Eurotech DuraCOR system) sends/receives commands
via an RS485 connection to/from one or more PCN-1001.
WARNING!
IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THE SAME VERSION OF “PCN-1001-DEMO-WIN32” AND
“ IMGSERVER ” MUST BE INSTALLED RESPECTIVELY ON THE HOST PC AND ON THE PCN-1001.
INCOMPATIBILITIES WILL OCCUR AND THESE WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS IF OLDER AND NEWER
VERSIONS OF EITHER THE “PCN-1001-DEMO-WIN32” OR “ IMGSERVER ” ARE USED TOGETHER.
