Recording your first measurement

1. Attach the CI-110 camera to the arm using the two top buttons for proper alignment.

3. Open the Plant Canopy Analysis System software. The Start, Data and Save buttons will be enabled once the device is detected.
   
   
4. Click the Start button. This will cause the round image area on the right to be updated with a live video stream from the CI-110 device.
   
   
5. Place the CI-110 under the canopy area to measure. Be sure the camera is facing north for accurate readings (as indicated by the compass needle which turns green when aiming north).
   
   
6. Click the Pause button to preview your measurement. Adjust the Brightness, Contrast & Gamma, etc. as needed to increase the contrast between sky and foliage.
   
   
7. Click Data and Edit to view your measurement details and make changes.
   
   
8. Click the Save button. Hold the camera steady for the 1-2 second delay while the image is saving. The application will save your measurement. To review your measurement click on the Browse Records tab. After saving the app will automatically go back into live video mode. Alternatively, the trigger button on the arm of the CI-110 can be used to save an image.
   The trigger button on the wand of CI-110 will automatically save an image. If this is pushed before starting the live preview of the image by selecting the Start button, the image will save immediately upon enabling the live preview.
