1. Setting up your Microscope
Carefully remove the microscope and the oth-
er components from the package and place
them on a table or other fl at surface. Remove
the dust cover from the microscope.
A power connection (220-230 V) is required
for observation with the electric LED light and
the LED eyepiece (display module).
The microscope can also connect to a PC
(USB connection).
In order to operate the device, connect the
supplied power plug (Fig. 3) with the power
connection (Fig. 3) on the back of the micro-
scope base (Fig. 3) to a power outlet (220-
230 V). Subsequently, turn on the desired
lighting using the light switch (11) and select
the required brightness with the „+" (12) and
„-" (10) keys.
2. Connection between Microscope
and PC
2.1 Transferring Data to a PC
Use the USB cable to connect your PC to
the microscope.
When the connection has been established
successfully, the PC recognizes the new
hardware on its own. The control light on the
microscope turns on, but the digital camera
remains off. On your PC, open the corre-
sponding folder for the removable device.
The fi les for the saved pictures can be found
here; copy them to your PC. You can proc-
ess them further from there.
Attention:
Do not remove the USB cable during the
data transfer. The data will be lost.
Before breaking the USB connection or turn-
ing off the LCD module, you need to remove
the device using the hardware assistant on
your PC („deactivate").
If the drive is not deactivated, the PC could
crash or you could lose your data!
2.2 Installing the Software
Attention:
Do not connect the DigiMikro DM700 to
your PC (computer) yet. In order to work with
the DigiMikro DM700 for the long term, we
recommend that you always connect it to the
same USB port. In some cases, your compu-
ter may not detect the device. If this occurs,
you can typically fi x the issue by re-installing
the drivers (from the CD). If this does not
work, please see the following chapter on
troubleshooting.
Insert the supplied CD-ROM into your CD/
DVD drive. The CD menu opens automati-
