Unable to Connect to Micron tracker camera

Unable to Connect to Micron tracker camera.
Should I need to make any changes in MicronTracker.ini or the PlusDeviceSet_Server_MicronTracker config file to make it detect.

Thanks in advance

As you noted in the last image, Plus is compiled with 3.7.6.8, while the version of the MicronTracker software that you have installed is 3.7.6.7.
Can you update to 3.7.6.8?

Also, see this page for more information on tool setup: http://perk-software.cs.queensu.ca/plus/doc/nightly/user/DeviceMicron.html

Hey @Sunderlandkyl thanks for the response and suggestion.

I tried updating the MTC library to 3.7.6.8, still Plus toolkit was not able to detect the micron tracker camera.

I am still getting the same error from plustoolkit, that "Connection failed".

I have also gone through the setup process here (http://perk-software.cs.queensu.ca/plus/doc/nightly/user/DeviceMicron.html), still not able to get how to point plustoolkit towards the microntracker installed directory and read camera calibration file and microntracker applications. I am not sure how to achieve the same.

Can you set the log level to trace and upload the result here?

pls find the log files. Micron tracker is working fine in democpp app

Does the demo app use the same, or any ini file?

[Gowtham1901]

I think demo app uses this MTDemoCPP.ini file located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Claron Technology\Micron Tracker

MTDemoCPP.ini (Contents)
[General]
SingleWindow=1
UseOpenGL=0
CaptureEnabled=True
LastFilesDir=C:\Documents and Settings\sizad\Desktop

Can you try replacing the value of "IniFile" in the config file with the path to MTDemoCPP.ini?

[Gowtham1901]

I have tried as you suggested still no luck

(I tried path for ini file using
IniFile="C:\Program Files (x86)\Claron Technology\MicronTracker"
IniFile="C:/Program Files (x86)/Claron Technology/MicronTracker")
I'm getting below log (not able to find the MicronTracker.ini file)
050522_112217_PlusLog.txt

I have tried this too
(I tried pointing directly for ini file using
IniFile="C:\Program Files (x86)\Claron Technology\MicronTracker\MTDemoCPP.ini"
IniFile="C:/Program Files (x86)/Claron Technology/MicronTracker/MTDemoCPP.ini")
I'm getting the below log (Error in initializing Micron Tracker)
050522_113003_PlusLog.txt

Also I have tried both running the DemoCPP app in background and without running it, before trying in plustoolkit, there seemed to be no difference in both the methods.

I have found one more thing if I remove the MTDemoCPP.ini file from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Claron Technology\MicronTracker" folder, MTCDemoCPP.exe is still able to run without any issues, So I am not sure the use of the ini file here.
