Scope Insertion
4. Once activated, scope can be immediately inserted to begin warming.
5. Push scope firmly into the warming/white balancing port located on the front of the unit.
Warming
6. Leave scope in warming/white balancing port for a minimum of five minutes for
initial warming. If scope is left in warming port for an extended period of time,
please reduce light intensity to reduce heat. For scopes with limited heating
requirements, reduce warming time accordingly.
7. For additional scope protection rest the scope on scope cradle. Note: Be sure to arrange
stand so that scope is located on a stable surface if left unattended.
White Balancing
8. The scope can be white balanced while it is warming. White balancing procedure is
dependent on the type of camera system utilized. If camera light intensity is too high,
white balancing may fail. Pull scope slightly away from target or reduce the camera's
light intensity. If necessary, white balance with Microfiber Cloth. We recommend NOT
using gauze.
Indications For Use: LaparoVue
