Operaon
This microscope can be used as a standalone device when paired with an HDMI monitor, or as a USB device when
connected to a PC. When connected to a PC using USB, the microscope will enter PC mode, taking precedence over the
standalone funcons.
Arculang Arm
The arculang arm can be adjusted around three joints to posion the microscope at virtually any angle and posion
within the reach of the arm. All joints are locked simultaneously using the locking knob. Before adjusng the arm, be
sure to support the microscope with a hand. Next loosen the locking knob unl the arm joints are loose enough to easily
move. Posion the microscope as desired, then ghten the locking knob. Avoid extending the arm beyond the rear edge
of the support plate, as this could lead to the microscope pping over.

Focus
The microscope’s focus is mechanically controlled using a knob on the control panel. Rotang the knob clockwise will
extend the working distance to focus on objects farther away. Rotang the knob counter-clockwise will reduce the work-
ing distance to focus on closer objects. Magnicaon is also aected by these adjustments, increasing as the working
distance is shortened.
Illuminaon
The microscope is equipped with two independent ring lights. Each ring light is controlled by a separate knob on the side
of the microscope. While the microscope is connected to a power source, the ring lights will operate independent of the
microscope’s power switch. The knob engraved with the number 1 controls the outer ring light which provides diuse
illuminaon which is suitable for most observaon as it more even. The knob engraved with the number 2 controls the
inner ring light which provides direct illuminaon which is well-suited for viewing surface details such as scratches and
textures. Rotate either knob clockwise to increase brightness, or counter-clockwise to decrease brightness.

Operang Mode: HDMI
To operate in HDMI mode, the microscope must be aached to a power supply using the included USB cable. The cable
has a type-C connector on one end, and a type-A connector on the other. The USB-C connector must be connected to the
microscope’s USB/Power port. To power the microscope using AC power, plug the included AC-USB adapter into an AC
outlet, then plug the USB cable’s type-A connector into the USB port on the adapter. Alternavely, a 5V USB power bank
can be used as long as it can supply at least 900mA. In this case, the USB cable’s type-A connector would plug directly
into one of the power bank’s type-A USB ports.
To connect this microscope to an HDMI monitor, television, or other compable viewing device, use the included HDMI
cable or another compable cable with the appropriate connectors. The included cable has a mini-HDMI connector on
one end, and a standard HDMI connector on the other. Plug the mini-HDMI connector into the microscope’s HDMI port.
Plug the other end into the viewing device’s HDMI input. Move the microscope’s power switch to the “I” (on) posion.
Aer a few seconds, a live image will be displayed on the screen.
While in HDMI mode, the microscope uses internal soware to capture images and video, as well as to control the imag-
ing device’s sengs. Several icons may be displayed on the screen, displaying such things as the imaging mode, expo-
sure, white balance, and media status. The icons will be hidden aer 10 seconds of inacvity, but will display again when
a control buon is pressed.
Recording Media
In order to capture or play photos/videos in any mode, a formaed MicroSD card must be inserted into the MicroSD slot.
When compable media is present, the icon will be displayed. If no compable media is found, the icon will be
displayed.
Captured photos will be automacally saved in JPEG format to the MicroSD card using a sequenal naming convenon:
photo_00001.jpg, photo_00002.jpg, etc.. Captured videos will be automacally saved in MOV format to the MicroSD
card using a sequenal naming convenon: video_0001.jpg, video_0002.jpg, etc..
This microscope is compable with MicroSD cards up to 128GB. In the case that a 64GB or larger card is not recognized
by this device, and the formang funcon does not work, it is recommended to format the card as FAT32 using a com-
puter.

Imaging Modes
This microscope has three imaging modes: Photo, Video, and Playback. Each mode will have access to sengs and func-
ons which are accessed by using the control panel. The control buons may have dierent funcons depending on the
mode and which screen is currently displayed. Addionally, pressing and holding certain buons for 2 seconds will ac-
vate specic funcons depending on the mode. While no menu is displayed, pressing the right buon will cycle through
the imaging modes.
Photo and Video Modes
Photo and Video modes allow you to view live video and capture images. An assortment of sengs and funcons are
available in both modes to opmize image quality and user experience. Some sengs or funcons are exclusive to their
respecve modes. The control panel’s buons provide the same funconality in both modes aside from the Capture
buon which saves sll images in Photo mode, and starts or stops recording in Video mode.
