Operation - HDMI Output

Place a slide on your microscope and bring the specimen into focus.

Make certain your BioVID HD 1080+ is installed according to the HDMI directions 

above and that both the camera and TV are powered on. Toggle through the 

“INPUT” settings on your TV to ensure that the correct HDMI port is selected. An 

image will appear on the TV screen.

NOTE: If the edges of the image are cut off, make certain that your HDMI TV 

supports 1920x1080 resolution.  

Camera Control Panel: Move the USB mouse to the left side of the screen to 

reveal the Camera Control Panel. (See the image.)  

Plug the USB cable into the camera and into a 2.0-speed USB port on the com-

puter.

Exposure: Check the box labeled Auto Exposure to let the camera do the work. (You will still be able to adjust the

sliders active for manual adjustment of exposure. 

White Balance Settings: 

Global Auto WB: When this setting is chosen, the camera white balances automatically and continuously rejusts 

as needed.

Manual WB: When this setting is chosen, the R and B sliders are available for adjustment.

ROI WB: When this setting is chosen, a blue rectangle will appear on the screen. (See image below.) Use the USB 

mouse  to drag the rectangle to an area on the image that is white. Turn the wheel on the mouse to adjust the 

size of the rect angle. The camera will consider the area inside the rectangle as white for white balancing purpos-

es.
