4. The FireView program
Double click starts the program. The card pull down menu in the control section shows you
how many IEEE1394 adapter cards are found by the program.
One instance of FireView belongs to one card. So if you have two cards start FireView twice.
You can then operate these cards in parallel.
• Info button shows details to a selected message in the logging window
• Clear deletes content of the logging window
• About button to display version and copyrights of the program
• Stop All stops all connected cameras.
• Close All stops and closes all cameras.
• Utilities button to install or uninstall the driver Firedrv.sys.
Note: The demo version is fully functional. It is only limited with respect to the number of im-
ages After 5.000 images, you need to reboot the system for the driver to start new.
This restriction can be overcome by licensing the driver to specific IEEE1394 camera(s). See
page 10.
