If you know how to use LabView and want to use it instead, you could always try sending a "CR 3 2" to the camera first. This will lower the saturation value to 2, which will fix the light problem. Keep in mind that this will only work if LabView doesn't reset the camera first.
By the way, the camera communicates at 115200 baud, just use HyperTerminal.

The LabVIEW CMUCam2 application does reset the camera. It also has an entry to change all of the settings for the camera, including the saturation, without the need for a terminal application.
You can also load values for all the settings from a file. 2 configuration files are packaged with the application. One is the default for this years target (a suggested base line if tweaking calibration) and the default camera settings (for typical imaging).
If you are having trouble getting your camera to track, the LabVIEW application is a way to verify that the camera is working, that the settings are tracking properly, and to prototype other code that responds to the camera's feedback.
