C.1 Update Ownership Program for Cooke /I Lenses
The Cooke Owner Update program is to update the owner name of a lens through its
external interface. It is implemented in Java so it runs on Windows and Mac OS X, and can be
downloaded from Cooke Optics Limited website.
The lens and PC or MAC is connected through a serial port. If the machine doesn’t have a
serial port, use a USB-Serial port adapter and install a correct driver.
To run the program, Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is required. It comes with MAC OS X.
For Windows, it can be downloaded here if not installed.
