Configuring the Camera with the Camera
Configuration Tool Plus (CCT+)

The Camera Configuration Tool Plus (CCT+ for short) is a Windows

™

based program used to

easily change the camera’s settings. The tool communicates via the RS-644 serial connection in
the Camera Link interface between the frame grabber and the camera. The tool automatically
generates the binary programming commands that are described in Section

. For instructions

on installing the tool, see the installation booklet that was shipped with the camera.

This manual assumes that you are familiar with Microsoft Windows and that you have a basic
knowledge of how to use programs. If not, please refer to your Microsoft Windows manual.

4.1.1 Opening the Configuration Tool

1. Make sure that the properties for the RS-644 serial port on your frame grabber are properly

configured and that the camera has power.

2. On the desktop of your computer, click

Start

, click

Programs

, click

Basler Vision Technolo-

gies

, click

CCT+

, and then click

CCT+

to start the CCT+ (default installation).

During start-up, a start-up screen can be seen.

If start-up is successful, the tool will open. To familiarize yourself with using the tool, press the
F1 key and look through the online help included with the tool.

If start-up is not successful, the tool will automatically close. If this happens, refer to the CCT+
Installation Guide for possible causes.

4.1.2 Closing the Configuration Tool

Close the configuration tool by clicking on the

button in the upper right corner of the window.
