Follow these steps to configure the system to run Sherlock:
1. Connect cameras as shown in the hardware installation.
2. Verify a valid license is installed (run License Manager).
3. Run the 

iDiscover

program to detect and configure cameras connected to the 

system (icon shortcut on the desktop).

4. Run the 

Sapera CamExpert

utility if you want to change settings in any of the Genie 

Nano cameras such as exposure,  strobe or white balance. (does not apply to PIC-

2592.)

5. Run the 

Sapera Acquisition Wizard

to verify Genie Nano cameras are shown as 

expected and save the configuration file SaperaLTDrv.ini by clicking the “save” 

button. (does not apply to PIC-2592)

6. Launch Sherlock using the shortcut on the desktop (Sherlock GUI shown below). 
7. Go to the Options menu and select Acquisition. In the “Configure Driver Loading” 

section enable “Sapera LT” for Genie cameras. 

8. Enable “Ifc” for the PL-USB or PIC-2592 cameras. Edit the “IfcDrv.ini” file to point to 

a valid PL-USB or PIC2592 configuration file. A full path is required. Refer to the PL-

USB Installation Manual, or the PIC2592 Quick Start Guide. 

Note:

Sherlock will fail 

to run if you enable Ifc but fail to point to a valid configuration file! 

9. Close and reopen Sherlock. Driver changes only take effect when Sherlock opens.
