imager module. The module comes without mounted lenses.
To set up and test the STH-MD1/-C, you will need the following:
1. Pair of C-mount lenses, for 2/3” or larger imager.
2. Host computer with a 1394 PCI or PCMCIA card, OHCI
compliant.
3. 1394 6-pin cable.
4. Capture software or Small Vision System installed on the host
computer.
Install the 1394 host card, if necessary, according to the directions in
Section 7.1. Install the video capture software (included with the STH-
MD1/-C) or Small Vision System software (see Section 7.2). This is the
not-so-quick part of the Quick Start.

Screw the lenses into the mounting holes on the stereo head. Be careful
not to force them initially, as you can cross-thread the lens mount. Snug
them down, but do not tighten excessively.

Plug one end of the 1394 6-pin video cable into either 1394 jack on the
STH-MD1/-C, and the other into a 1394 port on the host PC. Note: for
PCMCIA cards, and laptops with a 4-pin Sony iLink port, an external
power supply and adapter are necessary to convert to a 6-pin (signal +
power) 1394 plug. Most PCMCIA cards come with this adapter.

see Section 7. If the images are too light or too dark, you can open the
manual iris of the cameras, or change the exposure and gain settings
(Section 6.3). Images can be saved using the File menu.
