turned on.
2. For ST-133s containing a TAXI Interface module, go to Step 5.

Windows|Start|Programs|PI Acton menu or from the directory where you
installed the WinX application (WinView/32, WinSpec/32, or WinXTest).

name to one that is more specific or you can keep the default name "Camera1".
When you have finished, click on the Done button.
