Installation of camera drivers and software
Operating system requirements: Windows XP, Windows Vista ,Windows 7 or Windows 8. If your PC is Windows
XP: before the installation of your Camera please check if Service Pack2 is installed. If not, please update your
XP from the Microsoft web site. If your PC has a USB port less than 2.0, there may be some problems in captur-
ing image from the camera due to the slow transmission.
1. Please insert your CD and run:
\Optika View2\OptikaView-Setup.exe
2. Now Optika View icon appears on your desktop.
3. Choose from the folder "\drivers" the model of camera you want to use and select the file "setup.exe".
4. The installer may show warnings about missing Windows certification: ignore such warnings and select
"Continue". Note : do NOT cancel the installation.
5. At the end of the installation process restart the PC if requested.
6. Plug the Camera in your PC: the camera will be identified and Windows will recognize the driver which has
just been installed from the CD.
Then ignore any message about Windows compatibility and select "Continue" .
Note: do NOT cancel the installation.
7. At the end of the identification process, disconnect your Camera and try to plug it again, in order to check if
the Driver was installed correctly (no Windows error messages should appear).
Should any error message appear on your PC, you will find a "\manual\Troubleshooting" folder on your CD
which shows how to solve any problem which Windows could give.
Some notes
You should know that your Windows PC needs to install a Driver before capturing images from the camera: after
installing the driver from the CD, Windows needs to recognize the camera before using it.
Often a PC has some ports on the front and some on the back: the ports on the back are usually faster. We sug-
gest to use these ones.
If you connect the camera into another USB port, Windows needs to recognize its Driver again even if it has
alredy done this operation for the first USB port.
Generally, every time you use a peripheral device and after that you connect your Camera, then Windows needs
to recognize the Driver again.
It may happen sometimes that Windows doesn't recognize a Camera using one of your PC USB ports, while
gives no problem using another port.
To prevent any installation problem we have put on the CD all the software and drivers in specific folders with
an appropriate names.
