Euromex ImageFocus Alpha Camera Guide

This document provides essential information for setting up and using Euromex ImageFocus Alpha cameras, including software installation and details on compatible accessories.

Software Installation

To utilize Euromex cameras, the application software must be installed. This software is available for free download from the Euromex website under the 'downloads' section. Note that there may be differences in functionality and user interface between Windows and Mac operating systems.

1.1 Windows Installation

Download the ImageFocus software specifically for Windows.
Important: After downloading the software from the Euromex website, it is recommended to first extract the installation file to a designated folder on your hard drive (avoiding the desktop). Subsequently, run the extracted installation file.
For optimal installation, right-click the installation file and select "Run as administrator". If this option is not available on your system, proceed by clicking the file with the left mouse button.

1.2 Mac Installation

Download the ImageFocus software for Mac.
Double-click the downloaded zip file to extract its contents. Then, double-click the .dmg file.
Drag the ImageFocus Alpha application icon (IF icon) into your computer's applications folder.

During the Mac installation process, a visual prompt guides the user: "To install, drag this app to the Application folder on the right". This prompt typically shows the application file "ImageFocusAlpha.app" alongside an icon representing the "Applications" folder. A concluding note advises, "You may then eject this disk image as it is no longer required."

1.3 Starting the Camera

Upon launching the ImageFocus software, it automatically detects all compatible cameras connected to your computer and presents them in a list. To begin using a camera, simply click on its name in the list.
