AVT Manta cameras: installing hardware and software
Using the GigE Sample Viewer
This application is used to stream live view images from the camera, adjust
the camera parameters and test basic functionality. This can include testing
the external trigger cabling by configuring the camera to accept an external
trigger rather than run continuously.
Open liveview
Select the desired camera from the cameras window of the GigE Sample
Viewer.
Left-click the eyeball icon
A new View window will appear.

Using default camera settings this will start continuous acquisition from the
camera using freerun trigger mode, 15 ms exposure time and 0 dB gain.
Note
If the images are too dark, point the camera directly at a
light source to ensure images are not being dropped.
