Uploading Data

How the settings files reach the Cam Driver depends on the platform. They can also be changed on the Data Layer on both, see Settings on the Data Layer.

On ctrlX OS

Most data can be uploaded directly through the ctrlX Web UI. Use WebDAV only when direct upload is not available or when you need to access the application folder structure.

On a PC

On a PC the settings files are ordinary files. Copy them into the folder the Cam Driver reads its settings from. The Cam Driver names this folder when it writes an example of its settings, see Starting from an Example. On Windows it is:

  • %APP_RESOURCE_DIR%\etc\lumiscan-cam-driver, when the environment variable APP_RESOURCE_DIR is set;

  • otherwise C:\ProgramData\HD Vision Systems GmbH\LumiScan Vision Suite\lumiscan-cam-driver\etc\lumiscan-cam-driver.

Restart the Cam Driver after changing a file. For an example configuration, see Application Settings Content Example.
