Software

You can set up the camera in the three different ways

1. Use an Native Linux or Mac host

2. Using a Windows Machine as discribed in section Windows Host System

3. Use our Virtual Machine Disk image on any OS with Virtual Box as discribed in section Virtual Host System

The purpose of this guide is to obtain a live image from your iam camera using synview explorer. Synview is a software developed by net and is used both on iam camera and your host system. Therfore there are two options to steam a live image to your host system either

1. by usining the iAMGigE-Server on iam camera and synview explorer on your host system or

2. running synview explorer direct on iam camera and using openSSH with X-Server forwarting for display.

Option 1. is the more easy one and is as well preinstalled to your camera but option 2. is going to be more important, since it can be similar used with any GUI software. As well, option 2. will be often much quicker during more advanced operation and development process with your iam camera.

The figure below illustrates the two options for obtaining a live view image.
