->To configure a starter for Webcam Information, open the IGEL Setup and go to Accessories > Webcam Information.

1. Start the Webcam Information tool.
   The following values are shown:

   • Width: Width of the image in pixels

   • Height: Height of the image in pixels

   • Rate: Frame rate in fps (frames per second). Example: 1/30 means 30 single images per second.

   

2. Click on on one of the fields to change the value. In doing so, the supported values are shown.
   

3. Click Test.

   

   
   The video image generated with the current settings is shown.
