RV2 Video Processor

Live

The Live tab shows the current image captured by the camera, allows changes to 

the camera settings, and allows the user to choose the current tracking configuration.

Device Name:

The NetBIOS name of the device. 

Firmware Version:

The currently installed firmware version number. This is 

useful for identifying the current firmware version and 

also to verify that a recent firmware update has been 

installed. See “Config” on page 8-15, for more 

information on updating the firmware.

Current Config:

A dropdown list of all available configurations. Tap a 

configuration to select it.

AutoOnce:

Tells the camera to perform its built-in auto-adjustment 

of exposure, gain and white balance. 

Lighter/Darker:

Adjusts the exposure time longer and shorter, 

respectively. 

Full Screen:

Displays the camera image over the entire screen. 

Tapping on the full screen image returns the interface to 

normal.

Resolution: 

(v1.6b & above) A dropdown list at the bottom of the 

screen controls the camera resolution (640x480 or 

320x240). Lower the resolution to achieve a higher 

frame count.

Manual Control:

Enables the Snapshot, Track LEDs and Record buttons. 

You cannot record from OpenEx while the RV2 is in 

Manual mode. When in Manual Control mode, tap the 

Manual Control button to disable Manual Control.

Snapshot:

Copies the current camera image to a JPG file on the 

RV2 hard drive, into the snapshots folder. 

Track LEDs:

Applies the tracking specification in the currently selected 

configuration file to the live camera feed. If colored 

targets are tracked, dots will appear in the image where 

the algorithm is finding targets. Use this mode to
