On your Matrox Iris GT
The files necessary to run MIL/MIL-Lite applications are already installed on your
smart camera. To upgrade your copy of MIL, contact your Matrox representative.
❖ Do not install any compiler on your Matrox Iris GT.
Memory allocation
By default, MIL/MIL-Lite reserves a specific amount of non-paged memory for
its grab buffers. Non-paged memory is physically linear (contiguous). The
remaining memory is available for use by Windows XP, the graphics controller,
and system management mode. An advantage to using non-paged memory is that
a bus mastering device can write to it without the help of the CPU. To speed up
the execution of applications that use a lot of MIL grab, processing, and non-paged
memory buffers, increase the amount of non-paged memory reserved for
MIL/MIL-Lite. Non-paged memory that MIL and MIL-Lite reserve can only be
used by MIL/MIL-Lite and is not counted as part of total computer memory.
To change the amount of non-paged memory reserved by MIL/MIL-Lite, use the
MILConfig utility.
Creating and transferring your application
This section deals with creating your application on your development computer
and transferring it to your Matrox Iris GT.
Transferring MIL/MIL-Lite applications to Matrox Iris GT
To run a MIL/MIL-Lite application on Matrox Iris GT, you must copy all of the
applications' files to your Matrox Iris GT. To do so:
1. On your Matrox Iris GT, assign and share a target folder.
2. On your development computer, connect and map a logical drive to this shared
folder.
3. Switch to the logical drive mapped to the target Matrox Iris GT folder.
4. Change the current folder to the subfolder in which you want your application to
reside.
