Software Management
The Rotating Manipulator includes software that modifies VideoRay Cockpit to recognize the Rotating Manipulator, Rotating Cutter or standard VideoRay manipulator. You can switch the active configuration as often as necessary to match the manipulator in use, but only one configuration may be active at any time. The configurations and instructions for selecting the desired configuration are included below.
 VideoRay Cockpit software must be stopped to change configurations.
- Rotating Manipulator - use this configuration when using the Rotating Manipulator with any jaw except the cutter. To select this configuration, double click on the Use Rotating Manipulator shortcut on the desktop.
- Rotating Cutter - use this configuration when using the Rotating Manipulator with the cutter. To select this configuration, double click on the Use Rotating Cutter shortcut on the desktop.
- Standard Manipulator - use this configuration when using the standard manipulator. This is the default configuration installed on all Pro 4s. To select this configuration, double click on the Use Standard Manipulator shortcut on the desktop.
The software is pre-installed on the Pro 4 computer if the manipulator is purchased as part of a Pro 4 ROV system. If the manipulator is purchased separately, the software must be installed. The software is included on a flash drive and can be downloaded from VideoRay's software download page.
