STH-DCAM USERS MANUAL

7.2.2 Linux Installation

To install the software under Linux, untar the file svscap22X.tgz in a new directory, which will become the top-level directory of the software. Add bin/ to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable.

The directory structure for the software is:

bin/ smallvcap stcap libsvscap.so pixcap.so dcamcap.so

src/

svs.h

svsclass.h

samples/ *.cpp makefile

There are two applications. smallvcap is a GUI-based application that allows the user to exercise the capture functions of the STH-DCAM. It is described in earlier sections of this document.

stcap is a simple application that connects to the stereo head and displays stereo images. It can serve as a template for user programs that integrate stereo capture from the STH-DCAM.

libsvscap.so is the capture library for Linux. These libraries must be set to the correct ones for the STH-DCAM. Copy the following files in the bin/ directory:

dcamcap.so -> libsvscap.so

You can check that the correct interface library is installed, by looking at the information text when the capture application is started. It should say “Dual DCAM digital stereo interface”. If not, the wrong interface library is installed in libsvscap.so.
