Follow your Frame Grabber manufacturer’s instructions when inserting the frame grabber card into 
your PC.  Be sure that you install the correct configuration software that matches the camera that 
you are using. 
At this point your camera should already be connected to the DC power supply, and connected to 
the frame grabber in your PC.  Your frame grabber will see our camera and start communicating 
almost immediately.  As soon as your camera starts communicating with the frame grabber, you 
can verify this fact by looking at your monitor and observing the video signal. 
To communicate with your camera we have created specific commands.  In the next section we will 
go over these commands in detail.
