The dialog box shows capture progress. You can also use the dialog to cancel the
capture.
Note that:
• I
mages are captured to the "Capture Directory" specified in the program. The
capture directory defaults to the root installation directory for the controller
software.
• Ideally, the capture directory should be set to a different directory than the
default. The directory can be set using the bottom Browse button. This button
is used to browse for a single image file, but it also serves to specify the
capture directory. Simply browse to a PNG image you wish displayed, and
the directory that the file resides in will become the capture directory.
• F
or "live capture" using "Capture Image," this directory must have read/write
access for the currently logged in user. When capturing during production,
this directory must have read/write access for the "Maxsys" user (or
whichever user account the "Datacard Maxsys" service is configured to run
under). Ideally, the capture directory will have read/write access for both the
currently logged in user and the Maxsys service user account.
• You ca
n enter a non-existent file name to force the setting of the capture
directory. For example, if you have a capture directory of
“C:\MX6000\Capture” you wish to use, but there are no files in that directory
yet, you can browse for the image file and enter
“C:\MX6000\Capture\Nothing.png”.
