Description
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

CCTVCAD Lab Toolkit  is a collection of software tools for measuring parameters of various CCTV equipment (cameras, lenses, filters, light sources and other).


Using CCTVCAD Lab Toolkit  you can:

Measure sensitivity and resolution of real video cameras, optical transmission and resolution of lenses and filters, infrared light power in order to obtain precise parameters for modeling (illumination meter is additionally required).
Measure exposure time and threshold illumination of IP cameras. Measure rolling shutter row time of IP cameras with CMOS sensor  (oscilloscope and low-frequency oscillator are additionally required).
Analyze real video images and live video on the computer monitor. Measure frame rate, signal-to-noise ratio and other parameters. Analyze separate lines of image, measure object/background contrast.
Determine from the Spectral Power Distribution curves and measure in practice the Spectral efficiency of visible and infrared light sources for the different image sensors. 

Independent measuring parameters of CCTV equipment is necessary for proper designing and modeling in VideoCAD because commonly manufacturer's specifications have not enough parameters or parameter's values are uncertain.


Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. In case your operating system is Windows 2000 or Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 enter  under administrator account (administrator account is required only at installation).
2. Unpack archive in case CCTVCAD Lab Toolkit was supplied in archived file.
3. Stop all running programs. Especially antivirus and Windows registry monitoring software.
4. Start Setup.exe.
Further program installation is performed automatically.
5. If your operating system is Windows9x or Windows Me, reboot your computer.

CCTVCAD Lab Toolkit provides detailed help system. Pressing F1 launches context help.
All elements are supplied with pop-up hints appearing at pointing by the cursor. 


Demo registration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After first installation CCTVCAD Lab Toolkit has only Demo registration.
Demo registration allows you to evaluate CCTVCAD Lab Toolkit. 
You may use the demo registration to evaluate CCTVCAD Lab Toolkit for 30 days and no more 30 runs. After this time you must either buy the license to use the CCTVCAD Lab Toolkit permanently or delete the CCTVCAD Lab Toolkit from your hard drive. 
With Demo registration you can't use CCTVCAD Lab Toolkit for any purpose except the evaluation. 

Demo registration has the following restrictions:
	Image Analyzer: image size no more than 640*480 pix, measuring signal/noise ratio with 5dB accuracy.
	Video Analyzer: pixel count no more than 50, Cycle mode is disabled.
	Spectrum Analyzer: wavelength within 300-750nm, adding new image sensor is disabled.

ATTENTION!
Don't try to use Demo registration in real work! Random errors may appear in the calculation results.
