5. Using the applications

The Philips SPC 200NC PC camera is TWAIN-compatible* (like a scanner), so you can use the
camera as an input device for any application software that uses TWAIN as a data source.
(e.g. photo editing software).

In TWAIN-compatible applications you will see the Philips SPC 200NC camera listed as an
available TWAIN data source among your other TWAIN sources (e.g. scanners). Just pick the
USB PC camera as your source to acquire camera pictures directly into your application.
Then choose 'Acquire' to launch the camera viewfinder which displays the moving video picture.

For additional support read the 'Help' documentation within the 'Help' option of the menubar
of the TWAIN application you are using.

* TWAIN is a standard software protocol and applications programming interface (API) that regulates

communication between software applications and imaging devices (the source of the data).
