GenTL Driver
GenTL is an industry standard method of controlling and acquiring data from an imaging device. The
GenTL driver included with Gocator allows GenTL-compliant third-party software applications such as
Halcon and Common Vision Blox to acquire and process 3D point clouds and intensity generated from
the Gocator's Video, Profile (with Uniform Spacing disabled)and Surface modes in real-time.
To use these third-party software applications, you must configure a system variable so the
software can access the GenTLdriver. For instructions, see To configure system variables to use
the driver in Windows 7, below.
You can download the toolset package containing the driver from the LMI Technologies website at
http://lmi3d.com/support/downloads/. Click the link for your product, click the Product User Area link at
the top of the page, and log in. The tool package is called 14405-x.x.x.x_SOFTWARE_GO_Tools.zip.
After downloading the package and unzipping the file to a location you will remember, you will find the
driver in the GenTL\x86 or GenTL\x64 folder (you can move the GenTLfolder to a more convenient
location).
To configure system variables to use the driver in Windows 7:
1. From the Start menu, open the Control panel and then click System and Security.
2. Click System.
