The Photon Graphical User Interface (GUI) is a PC program that enables remote command and control of Photon functions and features through an RS-232 serial interface to the camera. IMPORTANT: Make sure there is only one version of the GUI installed at at time on your computer.
Download Photon GUI v1.9.0 (Zip file, 29.4MB) For all Photon cameras delivered beginning in 2008.
Download Photon GUI v1.2.0 (Zip file, 29.4MB)** For Photon 320 cameras delivered prior to 2008.
**The Photon GUI v1.2 supports software versions 2.0.0.9, 1.0.1.15, 1.0.1.17, 1.01.1.12, 1.0.1.19 and 1.0.1.26. With very few exceptions, these software versions are installed on Photon 320 cameras delivered before 2008.
The Photon GUI v1.9.0 supports Photon 640, as well as all other software versions of Photon 320 and lower resolution Photon cameras. If you are not sure of the software version, download the Photon GUI v1.9.0 and check the about tab for the camera software version.
We suggest extracting the GUI files into a folder. Then, run the setup.exe file. During the install process you will be prompted to select the features you want to install, and de-select the features you do not want to install.
Unless you are purchasing an Ethernet module, we recommend deselecting the Ethernet install option. You can always re-install the Ethernet option at a later time.
