3 How to get started (GigE G2)

3.6

Getting started

This section describes how to acquire images from the camera and how to modify camera
settings.

1.

Open the PF_GEVPlayer software (Start -> All Programs -> Photonfocus -> GigE_Tools ->
PF_GEVPlayer) which is a GUI to set camera parameters and to see the grabbed images
(see Fig. 3.9).
