mvDeviceConfigure
(p. 116) is an interactive GUI tool to configure MATRIX VISION devices. It shows all connected
devices.
Various things can also be done without user interaction (e.g. updating the firmware of a device). To find out how to
do this please start
mvDeviceConfigure and have a look at the available command line options presented in the
text window in the lower section (the text control) of the application.
11.2.1 How to set the device ID
The device ID is used to identify the devices with a self defined ID. The default ID on the device's EEPROM is "0".
If the user hasn't assigned unique device IDs to his devices, the serial number can be used to selected a certain
device instead. However, certain third-party drivers and interface libraries might rely on these IDs to be set up in a
certain way and in most of the cases this means, that each device needs to have a unique ID assigned and stored
in the devices non-volatile memory. So after installing the device driver and connecting the devices setting up these
IDs might be a good idea.
To set the ID please start the mvDeviceConfigure (p. 116) tool. You will see the following window:
