The IDS Camera Manager is the central tool for managing all IDS cameras. The IDS Camera Manager displays information on the connected cameras and provides options for configuring them.
The IDS Camera Manager can be opened as normal user or with root privileges. Only with root privileges, you can start, stop, and configure the USB and ETH daemons.
On Linux systems the IDS Camera Manager can be accessed as follows:
•/usr/local/share/ueye/bin/idscameramanager
•Enter in command line: idscameramanager

•With the "Quit Manager" button, you close the application. Any settings you have made are saved.
•With the "Hide to tray" button, the application remains open in the background.
•The status box at the bottom indicates the current status of the selected camera. If it is available, the status message is shown in black. Otherwise, the status message is shown in red.
If an error has occurred in a camera, a black exclamation mark on a yellow background is shown next the camera. The status box then indicates the cause of the error and suggests remedies.
