back of the microscope. When you insert the SD card properly, the SD card icon
will be visible at the bottom right of the LCD screen. The bottom right of the
screen will also show the memory available on the SD card. When imaging, the
images are saved on the SD card and not in the internal storage memory. Do not
pull and insert the SD Card quickly or errors may occur.
Note: Inserting or removing an SD card while the LCD is on, may cause the
LCD to shut down and/or could damage the SD card.
E. Transferring Images to your Computer — To transfer images to a PC or MAC,
you need to have a free USB port and have an imaging program to use for
snapshots and/or videos.
Note: Do not disconnect the USB cable while transferring images or
damage may occur.
You can transfer images from the internal storage memory to your PC by using the
supplied Mini USB Cable. The small plug end of the cable plugs into the USB Port
(12) on the back of the microscope, and the large plug end of the cable plugs into
your computer. If the connections are proper, you will see (on your microscope
screen) “MSDC” or similar data/icon. Your computer will automatically recognize
the new hardware. Next, you will choose which program on your computer you
want to transfer the images to.
If you used an SD card to store your images, you can transfer them to your PC using
the same method mentioned above. You can also remove the SD card and insert
it into your computer (if there is an SD card slot available) to transfer the images.
Either way, your PC will ask you to choose which program you would like to transfer
the images to.

Your microscope is a precision optical instrument and should be treated with care at
all times. Follow these care and maintenance suggestions and your microscope will
need very little maintenance throughout its lifetime.
• Store the microscope in a dry and clean place inside the pouch included.
• Be very careful if using your microscope in direct sunlight to prevent damage to
the microscope or your eyes.
• Never point the microscope towards the Sun, or the camera may become
damaged and cease to operate.
• Clean the outside surfaces with a moist cloth.
• Blow off dust with a camel’s hair brush or air blower from the optical surfaces.
• Never disassemble or clean internal optical surfaces. This should be done by
qualified technicians at the factory or other authorized repair facilities.
• Do not disassemble or take apart the microscope or damage can occur.
• When handling glass specimen slides, use care as the edges can be sharp.
• If the screen freezes up for any reason, power off and start again or remove and
replace the batteries.
