Once the system administrator has configured the capture sources, you can start capturing. Make sure all devices are connected and switched on.
When using an ID-CAM S, S-Video, or composite camera, place the camera at about 2 or 3 meters from the person to be photographed, approximately at head height.
When using a webcam, place it at about half a meter from the person.
Backlighting
The person will appear too dark against a bright background.
Ceiling lighting
Very bright ceiling lighting will create dark areas around the chin, the neck, and the eyes.
Side lighting
One side of the face will be too bright, the other one too dark.
Sunlight
Avoid bright and direct rays of sunshine at the shooting place.
Select the record for which you wish to capture an image.
Use the appropriate button in your ID Card System to open the Image Capture dialog box.
When the Image Capture dialog box opens, the capture source that was last used to capture an image is automatically enabled. You can continue to use it or select another one.
