Attaching the Camera to the Mount
The Head Unit containing the camera is designed to snap on and off the mount as
often as you want. However, before using it the first time, you should snap it on
and test it to verify you have attached the mount correctly.
To attach the camera to the mount for initial use:
1.
Snap the Head Unit onto the mount with the camera on the outside of
the eyeglass frames and the earpiece on the inside. Verify the camera
points straight relative to the eyeglass frame.
2.
Put on the eyeglasses. The earpiece should be between your cheek bone
and your ear, and should sit against your right temple bone. It should not
be in or on your ear.
3.
If your eyeglasses have long frames, extend the earpieces as needed.
4.
Verify that the camera is aligned with the line of sight of your eyeglasses.
To test the camera position, with the OrCam device on, extend your arm
straight forward beginning from your nose, pointing your finger upward.
If you hear a high-pitched, double-beep, the camera is adjusted correctly.
Note:
If the camera is angled too high or too low, the OrCam camera may
not be accurately triggered, and may not perform correctly.
5.
Place the wire behind your ear and tug on it slightly. Verify that the
mount does not move and the camera remains facing forward, and does
not twist to face upwards.
6.
Unsnap the Head Unit, and
verify that the mount does not
twist or come off.
