Product Overview

GateEye is a software program that operates via Ethernet to acquire image data from

network cameras and Yokogawa’s DX, MV, and CX series instruments, and distributes

those images to clients on the network. GateEye does not store image data. This

manual explains how GateEye acts as a client to acquire image data from networked

devices (cameras and Yokogawa DX, MV, and CX series instruments), and acts as

the server to distribute those images to other clients. GateEye allows you to enter

connection settings for downloading images from a server, and view connection settings,

image data client information, and server information. Settings for distributing images

must be entered on each individual client.
