INSTALLATION OF CAMERA DRIVERS AND SOFTWARE
1.1 Operating system requirements: Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7. If your PC is Windows XP:
before the installation of your Camera please check if Service Pack2 is installed. If not, please update your
XP from the Microsoft web site. If your PC has a USB port less than 2.0, there may be some problems in
capturing image from the camera due to the slow transmission.
1.2 Please insert your CD and run:
\Visicam\ setup.exe
1.3 Now Visicam icon appears on your desktop.
1.4 Choose from the folder "\drivers\" the model of your microscope, then choose your windows accordingly
to the folders you find. Now run the driver.exe.
1.5 The installer may show warnings about missing Windows certification: ignore such warnings and select
"Continue". Note : do NOT cancel the installation.
1.6 At the end of the installation process restart the PC if requested.
1.7 Plug the Camera in your PC: the camera will be identified and Windows will recognize the driver which
has just been installed from the CD.
Then ignore any message about Windows compatibility and select "Continue" .
Note : do NOT cancel the installation.
1.8 At the end of the identification process, disconnect your Camera and try to plug it again, in order to check
if the Driver was installed correctly (no Windows error messages should appear).
NOTES ABOUT DRIVER INSTALLATION
You should know that your Windows PC needs to install a Driver before capturing images from the camera:
after installing the driver from the CD, Windows needs to recognize the camera before using it.
Often a PC has some ports on the front and some on the back: the ports on the back are usually faster. We
suggest to use these ones.
All our cameras, even though they may have an external connection, do not need any external power supply
because it comes from the USB cable of your PC.
If you connect the camera into another USB port, Windows needs to recognize its Driver again even if it has
alredy done this operation for the first USB port.
Generally, every time you use a peripheral device and after that you connect your Camera, then Windows
needs to recognize the Driver again.
It may happen sometimes that Windows doesn't recognize a Camera using one of your PC USB ports, while
gives no problem using another port.
HOW TO TEST YOUR CAMERA
In order to check if your Camera works correctly, it's not necessary to put it into the microscope: it's enough
to connect it into the USB port, run Visicam using the icon on your desktop, select the right driver and check
whether the shown image is not totally black.
