Installing the software

To install any Matrox Imaging software, place its CD in the appropriate drive; the setup.exe file will run automatically.

While installing the software, you will be asked to provide the following information:

The drive and directory in which to install the software.

The target operating system and compiler.

The type of Matrox hardware that is installed in your computer.

If you have an MGA graphics board, you should install the display driver that is on the CD.

After installation, read the readme file(s) recommended by the installation program.

Note about Matrox Intellicam

MIL-Lite uses digitizer configuration formats (DCFs) to configure the camera interface on Matrox digitizers. The DCF defines, among other things, the video timing signals and the video data format. Matrox Intellicam can be used to create or customize a DCF file, if the supplied files do not include one that matches your video source.

For more information about Matrox Intellicam, refer to the Matrox Intellicam User Guide.
