PTPCam Installation Notes:
Following
are some notes for PTPCam LabVIEW
Toolkit:
- PTPCam LabVIEW
Toolkit only works on Winxp or higher OS, not
with Win2k.
- Please make sure you
switch the digital camera to PTP mode, not in mass storage mode.
- Make sure you switch
the camera to capture mode, not in play back mode.
- To find out which mode
your camera is, you can go to “My computer” on your desktop, if you see
your camera name, that means it’s in PTP mode, or else, it’ll show as mass
storage device which is not the mode we want.
- Please note, not all
PTP camera will support all the functions in PTPCam
LabVIEW toolkit. Functions like “Take a picture”
remotely is optional in PTP standard, but if you switch your camera to the
wrong mode, this “Take a picture” function will also be disabled.
