Intr ducti n

Thank you for purchasing the Digital Comprehensive Scope 2. This

digital compound microscope series is specifically designed with

advanced features of a 3.2 megapixel digital camera, a mechanical

stage with spring-loaded stage clips, an Abbe condenser with iris

diaphragm, an adjustable light dimmer (rheostat), and high-quality

objective lenses that will magnify 40-1000 times. Combined with

Ken-A-Vision’s Applied Vision™ software, this microscope is a powerful

product allowing the user to take digital pictures, annotate images, make

measurements, and record full-length or time-lapse videos that add to

the classroom and educational experience.

Micr sc pe Set-up Guide

The Digital Comprehensive Scope 2 compound microscope can be set

up in a matter of minutes. To get the most out of this amazing tool,

follow these step-by-step instructions:

1. After unpacking the box, take the Applied Vision™

software CD and insert it into your computer to install.

NOTE: For a complete instruction manual of Applied Vision software,

refer to the .pdf version on the Applied Vision CD.

2. Follow the directions to install the software. Once

completed, an Applied Vision icon should appear on

your computer’s desktop.

3. Remove the Applied Vision CD from your computer

and restart the computer.

4. Remove the Digital Comprehensive Scope 2 from the

plastic bag and remove the protective coverings from

the objective lenses and the eyepiece(s).

5. Place the microscope on a flat, firm surface next to the

computer with the installed Applied Vision software.

6. Check the coarse focus knob on either side of the main

body support. The coarse focus knobs should turn

easily.

NOTE: The stage should move freely up and down the main body

support when focusing. When you release the knob, the stage should

remain stationary, and not slide down the post on its own.

7. To operate the cordless feature of this microscope,

immediately plug in the microscope to charge for eight

(8) hours.

a. Plug in the round pin adapter from the power

supply to the back of your microscope.

b. Connect the opposite end to a Ken-A-Vision®

multicharger (Part # SCGN061) or an 110V

(220V international) electrical outlet.

NOTE: With one (1) overnight eight (8) hour charge, you can use the

microscope for up to forty (40) hours of continuous operation. The

cordless microscope can also be operated with the cord plugged into the

power source.

c. The best option, when not in use, is to plug the

microscope into a Ken-A-Vision multicharger

that will automatically stop charging once the

microscope is fully charged to keep it at the

optimal full charge for longer battery-life. This

prevents over charging and the user can charge

up to eight (8) microscopes at once.

d. Once finished charging, store the power cord in

the stow away integrated storage compartment

on the back of the microscope.

8. Plug the narrow end of the USB 2.0 cable into the back

of the camera body.

9. Plug the wide end of the USB 2.0 cable into the USB port

of your computer with the installed Applied Vision™

software.

10. To turn on the LED lights, locate the power switch on the

right back side of each microscope base.

11. Place a prepared slide on the stage and move it into

position for viewing.

12. Start with the 4x objective by raising the stage with the

coarse focus knobs until it will go no higher.

13. Lower the stage slowly to bring it into focus using the

coarse focus knobs.

14. To sharpen the image, adjust with the fine focus knobs.

15. Launch Applied Vision software.

16. The image that is being viewed through the eyepiece(s)

of the microscope should be displayed on the computer

screen.

17. Once the image appears on the computer screen,

simply turn the nosepiece to the next higher objective

lens and do minor adjustments with the fine focus knobs.

NOTE: If the image on the screen is flickering, reduce the amount of

light entering through the iris diaphragm and rheostat (light dimmer).

18. After obtaining focus of the specimen on the computer

screen, adjust the diopter on the eyepiece tube for

individual eye correction when viewing through the

microscope.

NOTE: The T-19641C binocular diopter is on the left eyepiece tube.

Tr ublesh ting

This section provides many useful tips on how to solve common problems

while setting up or using the Digital Comprehensive Scope 2 compound

microscope:

I can’t see an image. I can only see a partial image.

• Check to see if the USB plug is in the USB port of the

computer with installed Applied Vision™ software, or the

power supply is plugged into an electrical outlet, or the

battery is charged if using cordless.

• Check to see if the objective lens is clicked into place.

• Check to see if the LED lights are turned on by switching

the power button on the back of the microscope. A red

indicator light should glow if the LED lights are on.

• Check to see if the dimmer switch (rheostat) is turned

clockwise to allow the intensity of light to increase.

• Adjust the iris diaphragm, located underneath the stage,

to control the amount of light illuminating the prepared

slide.

• Close Applied Vision and then reboot Applied Vision

to activate the camera.

It is difficult to get an image in focus.

• Adjust the coarse focus knobs slowly.

• Check to see if the objective lens is clicked into place.

• If the image is focused on the computer screen, adjust

the diopter on the eyepiece tube to focus for the user’s

individual vision when viewing through the eyepiece.

• Check to see if there has been damage to the objective

lenses and eyepiece(s). If the lens/eyepiece is dirty, use

lens paper and distilled water to rub gently clean.

NOTE: Never rub the lens/eyepiece when it is dry. This can cause static

charge that will attract dirt.
