Demo, High Speed PCI, and PCI(Timer) are Choices on Hardware

If there is an installed Princeton Instruments (RSPI) high speed card in the host computer
and you want to operate a PhotonMAX camera, the PVCAM.INI file (created by
RSConfig.exe) must exist and the PhotonMAX camera (PM Style) must be [Camera_1].
PVCAM.INI, which contains information required to identify the interface/camera, is
referenced by the Hardware Wizard when you are setting up WinView/32 with the
PhotonMAX for the first time. If the Wizard did not find a PVCAM.INI file or if
RSConfig.exe was run but the PhotonMAX (PM Style) is [Camera_2] in the PVCAM.INI
file, "Demo", "High Speed PCI", and "PCI(Timer)" will be selectable from the Wizard's
Interface dialog box.

At this point, you will need to run the RSConfig.exe program:
1. If you have not already done so, close WinView/32 or WinSpec/32.
2. Make sure the PhotonMAX is connected to the host computer and that it is powered
on.
3. Run RSConfig from the
Windows|Start|Programs|Roper Scientific
menu or
from the directory where you installed WinView.
4. When the RSConfig dialog box (Figure 62) appears, you can change the camera
name to one that is more specific or you can keep the default name "Camera2".
When you have finished, click on the
Done button.
