7.4 Camera1 (or Similar Same) in Camera Name Field
When the Camera Detection Wizard installs a new camera, the camera is automatically
named Camera# (where # = 1, 2, or 3, depending on the number of cameras detected)
This name will appear in the Hardware Setup title bar and as the active camera on the
Hardware Setup
►
Controller/Camera tab. See Figure 7-2 .

If you would prefer a more specific name, you can edit
PVCAM.INI
(located in the
Windows directory) and rename the camera. The new name will then be used by the
system until the Camera Detection Wizard is run again.
Perform the following procedure to change the default Camera Name:
1. Close the application program if it is running.
2. Using Notepad.exe, open
PVCAM.INI
from the Windows directory.
3. Edit the Name. See Figure 7-3 .
Figure 7-3: Editing Camera Name
4. Save the edited file.
