Section 6. Camera Configuration

There are two methods for a user to configure the CC5MPX camera.

The first is by using the web interface of the camera. This is the best way to
set up a camera. Normally most users will need to communicate with the
camera via the Ethernet connection in order to facilitate focusing and targeting
of the camera when installed.

The other means of setting up the camera is to connect the RS-232 serial lines
on the CC5MPXCBL1 Power and I/O Cable and use Campbell Scientifics’
Device Configuration software to change configuration parameters in the
camera (Section 9). Device Configuration Utility is a free download from any
Campbell Scientific website.

If you are not able to connect to the camera via the Local Area Connection due
to a loss of configuration information, you will need to use the Device
Configuration Utility. A third method is available as well that involves
opening up the camera to access the internal USB connector. Please refer to
Section 22 Internal USB Function.
