and will be entered in the Camera Name field on the
Setup

Because this name is not particularly descriptive, you may want to change it. Such a
change is made by editing the
PVCAM.INI
file that is generated by the Camera Detection
wizard.
Perform the following procedure to change the default Camera Name:
1. Close WinView if it is running.
2. Using Notepad or a similar text editor, open
PVCAM.INI
, which is located in the
Windows directory (e.g.,
C:\WINDOWS
,).
3. Edit the Name field. See Figure 7-2 .
