How to take a photo
1. Verify that the correct cardholder’s record is displayed before taking the photo.
2. Then click Take Photo.
Note: A video card (if camera is not USB) and camera are required before you can take a photo. Also, make
sure the color and resolution for your computer’s monitor is set to 1024x768 and 16 bit High Color.
The cardholder’s image appears in the live video screen in the upper right of the new
screen shown below. To the right and below the live video image are adjustment bars in
scroll bars, which you may use to center the subject in the screen area. You may also
adjust the Zoom bar to adjust how the image fills the screen.
To the lower left of the live video image is an area that displays the current photograph (if
any) in the cardholder database for that subject. In the left upper part of the screen are
the adjustment bars that you can use to control the Brightness, Contrast, Saturation,
and Hue. As you adjust these controls, the live image changes accordingly.
3. To take a photo, click the Click button and the photograph appears in one of the four screen
spaces at the bottom of the screen, starting at the left box. Each time you click the Click
button, another photograph is added to the four screen spaces at the base of the screen. As
the photos are taken they are added from left to right. You do not have to take four photos.
Save Once all Photo Badging data for the cardholder has been entered, click Save.

• If “Operation Complete” is displayed, then no further changes are needed.
• If “Duplicate Record” is displayed, then the Card Number has been repeated. Try a new number.
• If “Operation Failed” is displayed, then a required field was not entered. Enter the field and try again.
Clear At any point if you wish clear to clear the entered information, click Clear.
