The vCam-5 control module from Vivax-Metrotech Corp. comes preconfigured to work with LACP and PACP software packages. Necessary two-way communication to run LACP and PACP on a PC or CATV truck computer is achieved by using the unit’s RS232 socket and video composite sockets. The communication between the control module and PC allows for the text overlay to be sent to the control module and to control the distance counter. On the other end, the PC receives raw video, date, time and distance out from the control module. While running LACP and PACP software, video and still photographs are captured on the unit’s 300 GB hard drive. 800/446-3392; www.vivax-metrotech.com.
