Genie Series Cameras
The Genie cameras will be seen in Sherlock in the same order as they appear in the
SaperaLTDrv.ini file, created by the Sapera Acquisition Wizard. If the order is not to
your liking, there are two ways you can correct this.
1. Exit the wizard, disconnect the cameras, and reconnect them in the order you desire.
Use the SHOW Status Dialog Box (located in the windows tray at the bottom of your
display) to monitor when the cameras are recognized. Open the Sapera Acquisition
Wizard and create a new file following the steps above.
2. Save the configuration file from the Acquisition Wizard, and Exit. You can edit the
SaperaLTDrv.ini file (found in the Sherlock\Drivers directory) using Notepad. If all
cameras are the same type, you can copy and paste the camera names in the correct
order. Or, correct the references to “Server0” and “Server1” to match the order you want
your cameras to follow. Notice that each “Server#” appears twice in the configuration
file. For example, “Server0”, “Server0_Device0”, “Server1” and “Server1_Device0”.
Each time you run Sherlock it will use the order saved in the SaperaLTDrv.ini file, that is
created by the wizard. The order does not change every time the GV 400 is rebooted.
Note:
Each time you open the Sapera Acquisition Wizard, the order will change to the
order of discovery (or power-on order). If you Click “Save File” the new order will
overwrite the saved one, causing the order to change in Sherlock.
PIC2592 Cameras
The order of the PIC-2592 cameras is saved in the gevtest.txt file, created by the
Discover Genie utility. You can edit this file using Notepad. Please refer to the PIC-2592
Quick Start Guide.
