Installing Piximetre up this icon on your desktop. Start Piximetre by double-clicking its icon. Piximetre boots in French or English depending on the version of Windows installed on your machine. You can then change the language.

Prerequisites :

Installing and running the software requires the use of a Windows account in Administrator mode.

On recent Windows updates, we have sometimes observed a refusal to install the software. This is not a Piximetre defect, but a level of user account protection too high for this operation. It must then be lowered during installation and returned to its initial value after. Here's the procedure to follow:

  1. Open the control panel (type "control panel" in the search box at the bottom left of the screen),
  2. In this panel, select "System and Security",
  3. Then "Change User Account Control Settings",
  4. On the setting dialog that opens, lower the cursor one notch and confirm with Ok.
  5. It's finish.
  6. Do not forget to return to its initial value after the successful installation of the software.

 

Note: Piximetre version 6 uses the services of Framework 4.8 that is a recent Microsoft component. When this Framework is not present on your computer, Piximetre offers to install it for you. Accept the installation and follow the procedure (simple) that is offered. The installation of the component (41 MB) can be quite long, depending on network speed and power of your computer. Patience in the Azure !


MacOS and Linux

Piximetre and its AI run on macOS in a "Virtual Box" such as Wine, or others. The Pixi executable file to install is available here.
The AI can be downloaded directly from the website, in the IA AutoDetect section, which you should read.
Installing the software can be difficult for beginners, but automation is being developed to make it easier.
We have no information regarding Linux compatibility.


Known issues

Display Issues

In some cases, the application may exhibit display distortions or defects. This is due to an incompatibility (related to the application's development) with the specifications of the various screens used. You can resolve this by modifying your screen's system settings. Ideally, the resolution should be 1920 x 1080, 100%. A fix for this issue will be available soon.


Automatic update of previous versions

For various technical reasons, the automatic update of earlier versions may not work correctly on some computers. Manually uninstall the old version and then install this new with the button above "Dowload Piximetre".

All settings will be preserved.
You never lose information by installing a new version.


Manual installation

The manual installation procedure is to download this file (which unzips with WinZip, WinRar - free, ou compatibles). It contains a directory named "Application Files" and a file "Piximetre.application". Installing Piximetre is done by double clicking on "Piximetre.application".

Any previous version must first be uninstalled.

The Framework .NET 4.8, used on 32 or 64 bits computer, must be installed BEFORE. It corresponds to dotNetFx40_Client_x32_x64.exe named file. You can download it here (click on the link) and then run it.

The previous version Piximetre 5.10 is available here (as a compressed file) in case your computer is incompatible. You will need to unzips this file (like above) to the directory of your choice, then run the Piximetre.exe file it contains. Piximètre will not be "installed" on your computer, but you can create a shortcut to this file, for example, on your desktop. All your settings will be preserved.

 

Connecting Moticam cameras

The manufacturer driver of Moticam cameras is a driver only 32 bits. On some 64 bits PC, Piximetre which then runs in 64 bits, does not detect it and the connected cameras are not recognized.

To solve this 32-64 bits compatibility problem, download the 64 bits version of the driver and manually copy the file to the system directory Windows/System32, without changing the name (MUCam32.dll) obviously. It takes "Administrator" rights .

This unfortunately can not be performed automatically by Piximetre, for security reasons.
