connecting to your Matrox Iris GTX.
Note that these utilities are stored on your Matrox Iris GTX, but should be
installed on your development computer, in case the operating system partition

utility allows you to discover Matrox Iris GTX cameras on your network. In
addition, it can change network settings, restart or shut down individual smart
cameras, or open the portal page of a specific camera. On computers with Matrox
Design Assistant installed, this utility is included in the To o ls folder, accessible
from the MIL Control Center.

website. Bonjour browser is a program that lists all the services on your subnet.
