tact data for both:
– technical information / ordering
–commercial information
•Chapter Introduction on page 9 (this chapter) gives you the document
history, a manual overview and conventions used in this manual (styles
and symbols). Furthermore you learn how to get more information on
how to install hardware (Hardware Installation Guide), available AVT
software (incl. documentation) and where to get it.
•Chapter OSCAR cameras on page 17 gives you a short introduction to the
STINGRAY cameras with their FireWire technology. Links are provided to
data sheets and brochures on AVT website.
