I have been working on interfacing with the GigE’s. I went through Joe Be’s paper and the previous elogs and verified that the code files are installed.
I then downloaded and extracted a copy of the Pylon software onto my home directory on Allegra. Gautam helped me find installation instructions on Johannes’ directory so that I could make the installation on the shared directory.
So far , according to instructions, these commands need to be executed so that the installation takes place and the rules for camera permissions are set up.
sudo tar –C /opt/rtcds/caltech/c1/scripts/GigE –xzf pylon SDK*.tar.gz
followed by ./setup-usb.sh
The Pylon viewer can then be accessed with /scripts/GigE/pylon5/bin/PylonViewerApp
Should I go ahead with the installation in the shared directory? |
