4. Connect camera power supply to the camera.
5. Turn on the computer.

3.2 Installing the Software

If your system was delivered with MikroSpec R/T thermal imaging software, then you

have available all the necessary executables and support files needed for remote camera

control operations. However, you must first install the software and allow your PC to

reboot before using the camera control features of the R/T software.
Note: Do not install the software from a standard Windows™ Administrator account.

Instead, use an account with full Administrator rights. Consult your Windows™ user

manual or contact your IT department for more information on how to assign the proper

permissions.
To install the MikroSpec R/T software, perform the following procedures:

1. Close all programs on your PC
2. Insert the MikroSpec R/T CD in your CD-ROM Drive
3. Follow the on-screen commands to complete the installation.
