GETTING STARTED
Before using the Seeker050 or the Seeker050-09, make sure to remove the rubber cap
that protects the LEDs on the end of the probe.
The first thing you need to do to activate the unit is to plug the supplied USB cable into
an available USB port (USB 2.0 or 3.0) on your computer. Next, roll the thumbwheel on
the grip forward until it clicks. This powers up the grip through the USB port. On the task
bar, you will first be advised that your computer has “Found new hardware”, and then
that it is searching for a compatible USB device driver. If you are prompted that the
device or driver is incompatible, click “Install anyway”. You may have to restart your
computer to complete downloading the driver.
Once either of the Seeker050 series has been connected, use Windows Explorer to
locate “USB VIDEO” under “Computer” or “My computer”. Double-clicking on the icon
should display the live video being captured by the probe on your screen. You can then
use the thumbwheel to simultaneously adjust the brightness of the probe’s LEDs and the
displayed video.
To attach any of the three 12mm accessories that come with the DCS050, slip its
semicircular end over the flats of the camera head and rotate the accessory 90° until it
snaps into place.
Attaching the 9mm accessories is easy as they screw on to the tip of the probe.
