Page 7: Installation Procedures - Electrical
INSTALLATION PROCEDURES – ELECTRICAL: General Comments The interface cable between the computer and integrated camera system is important to the reliable operation of any motorized instrument positioning system. Selection of the type of cable, the size (AWG), the number of conductors required, grounding techniques, special consideration for wiring to the devices mounted on the pan/tilt unit, plug connections and the pan/tilt options are the topics covered in this Section. -
Page 8: Theory Of Operation
COMMUNICATIONS & CONTROL BOARD All communication to the EXO GeminEye model is through a Moog Video encoder, which is an IP connection only. There is one video encoder for each camera module, and either can provide motion control of the positioner. -
Page 9: Test Software
Permits batch firmware upgrade of all common EXO devices Note: Silverlight is a free plug in and is required to interface with the Moog EXO Web brower. Once your device is installed on your network and powered up, launch MDT from any computer on the network and the following window will be displayed: The MDT supports 2 ways to discover a device. - Page 10 The MCT will display as many devices as it discovers on the network If no DHCP server was able to assign an IP address to a Moog EXO Camera, it will appear in the MCT device list with an APIPA address (169.254.*.*). If a Moog Camera displays an APIPA address it must be configured with a valid IP address before it can be remotely configured by selection the "Assign IP address"...
- Page 11 To assign IP Address, update firmware, or configure Moog web interface, right click on highlighted serial number / Mac Address. Assign IP address(es) Once the IP information is set, the Silverlight web application served by the EXO Camera can be launched from the MDT or directly in your web browser by typing the device’s IP address in the address bar.

Page 26: Performing Batch Firmware Update
Performing Batch Firmware Update This section describes how to perform a batch update of multiple Moog EXO Camera devices to newer firmware versions from the MCT. The batch firmware update works by starting a firmware update session. Only one session at time is allowed and only 20 devices can be selected by session. - Page 27 To start a firmware update session, choose the “.iof” file corresponding to the new firmware by clicking to the “Select File …” button. Once selected, click to the “Start” button. Once started, the “Firmware Update Session” window shows the progress of the firmware update. This window can be closed at any moment without losing the current session.
