Where to get PTZ System Software

The Windows95/NT version of the PTZ System Software comes on disk with every Pioneer, included in
the Saphira distribution software. Updates and other platform-based versions are available online from the
ActivMedia Robotics Internet website. The compressed archives contain the shared executables and
accessory files you need to operate the PTZ System and integrate it with your own C-language programs.
Note that the PTZ system software works with Saphira version 5.3 or later. Collect all software online from:
http://robots.activmedia.com
Be sure to choose the software version that matches your computer's operating environment;
for Windows95/NT computers or ptzsys_linux.tgz for Linux OS, for example.
ptzsys.EXE
