Installation Instructions:

Copy the DD_52XWIN9X00_519.zip to a distinct directory (e.g. PCO52X). 
Unzip the file.

If you have Windows95/98 or Windows 2000 installed, the computer should automatically recognize
the new hardware and request you to insert the driver installation disk.

1.  Select the above directory (e.g. PCO52X) with the hardware driver.
3.  Verify the selection of the file 'sensicam.inf'.
4.  The necessary drivers will be installed now..
5.  Reboot your computer..
6.  You are now ready to install a camera control software.

In case of Windows2000/XP you will get a message box 'Digital Signature not found'. Press the 'Yes'
button to continue installation.
