4.2 Operating the Control Interface
4.2.1 Before Running TMCDSP.EXE
Before running TMCDSP.EXE, the video format (NTSC or PAL) and the serial communication port to
be used for camera control must be customized. The procedure is as follows:
1. Go to the application directory (default is C:\ProgramFiles\pulnix\TMCDSP) and open camset-
ting.reg.
2. Specify the comport number (ex: 1, 2 or 3) in the “camsetting.reg” file. If you are not sure, you may
leave this blank. If this is left blank, you will be asked which comport will be used every time you
run TMCDSP. Edit the video format to use (ex: “VideoFormat”=”PAL” or “VideoFor-
mat”=”NTSC”).
3. Edit the communication port to use in the “camsetting.reg” file (ex: “Comport”=dword:00000001).
4. Register to windows registry. From Windows Explorer, double-click on the “camsetting.reg” that
you edited.
5. Run TMCDSP.exe from “Start” -> “Programs” -> “Pulnix”. The main control dialog box will open
(Figure 10, “TMCDSP Control Dialog Box,” on page 19).
If there is a communication problem, a warning dialog box will pop up. In this event, please refer to
Section 4.3, “Troubleshooting and FAQ,” on page 26.
