The LCD Digital Microscope adjusts to the light digitally through the EV (Exposure Value) adjustment, similar to a digital camera.
Press and hold the MENU button to access the SETTINGS menu. Scroll to the EXPOSURE tab and press SELECT. In the EXPOSURE window, adjust the
EXPOSURE UP (brighter) or DOWN (darker) using the NAVIGATION buttons (see Figure 7).
Tip: Viewing a specimen that is very dark in color decreases the amount of light that can shine through it from the BOTTOM illuminator. To correct this, you will
need to increase the exposure setting by adjusting the illuminators to their highest settings.
Viewing a Specimen
Your digital microscope is equipped with a mechanical stage with adjustment knobs and a self-adjusting lever-action holding clamp (see Figure 8 below).
1. Use the thumb arm on the self-adjusting lever action holding clamp to open the clamp.
2. Place a specimen slide (3" x 1" / 76.2 x 25.4mm size) inside the holder and release the clamping arm, securing the slide in place.
3. Use the stage adjustment knobs to position the specimen over the opening in the stage. The rear stage adjustment knob moves the Y-axis (forward and
backward), while the front stage adjustment knob moves the X-axis (side to side).
Note: A vernier scale on both axes allows the exact marking and replication of an object in the field of view.
