Chapter 3: Install LightField
This chapter provides the installation procedure for LightField application software.
NOTE:
If LightField version 6.11 or newer has already been
successfully installed on the host computer, this chapter
may be skipped.
If a LightField software license was not purchased with the
camera system, installing LightField using the software CD
included with the NIRvana HS will provide users with full
software functionality for 45-days from the date of install.
Once the 45 day trial period has expired, available options
are:
• Purchase a LightField license to continue using the
instance on the current host computer;
• Install a new instance of LightField on a different host
computer to begin another 45-days of full feature
usage.
To purchase a LightField license, contact your sales
representative.
