Note
Since mvIMPACT Acquire version 2.8.0 it could be possible that you have to update your Windows installer at
least using Windows XP. The necessary packages are available from Microsoft's website: http://www.←-
microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=8483
All necessary drivers for Windows are contained in the standard mvIMPACT CD-ROM or DVD-ROM. For newer
driver versions we recommend to visit the MATRIX VISION website at www.matrix-vision.de, section "Products
-> Cameras -> your interface -> your product -> Downloads".
Note
For Windows XP Embedded
As mvBlueFOX cameras will register as an 'imaging device' in the systems device manager please make
sure that your Windows XP Embedded (XPe) distribution is shipped/build with support for the corresponding
device class ("Class GUID {6bdd1fc6-810f-11d0-bec7-08002be2092f}") before installing
the mvBlueFOX device driver. Otherwise, an installing of the driver when connecting a camera will fail with an
error message like "a required section in the INF file could not be found". The camera will not be accessible
then.
The mvBlueFOX is a USB 2.0 compliant camera device and needs therefore a functioning USB 2.0 port. If you are
not sure about this, please follow these steps:
1. Press "Start" and click on "Run"
2. Enter
msinfo32
3. Click on "Components" and look after "USB"
4. If there is a entry like "USB 2.0 Root Hub" or "ROOT_HUB20", your system has USB 2.0.
Please be sure that your system has at least one free USB port.
