Using the lllumaBase…
You can position your camera in two ways.
First, you can adjust the angle of the camera head. The camera head is swivel-
mounted; you can turn it 30° to the left or right. (DO NOT turn it more than 30° or you
may damage the camera. When you feel a natural resistance, stop.)
Second, you can adjust the flexible gooseneck. Adjust the goose-
neck until the camera is positioned exactly where you want it. The
camera lens is designed with a slight telephoto effect, so a”head and
shoulders” shot tills the video frame at an arms-length distance. This is ideal for
videoconferencing and other applications.
A focus ring is included with your Videolabs camera (DocCam and
ScholasticCam only). Assemble the focus ring by gently pushing the smaller end onto the
focus lip in the center of the camera head. Please note that the focus ring will not be flush
with the camera head. Turn the focus ring to the left for close-up and to the right for
distance.
Teachcam, Studentcam, Medcam and IDCam are shipped with a standard C-
Mount Lens (8mm for Teachcam, Studentcam and Medcam and l6mm for
IDCam). If other C-Mount lenses are purchased, simply unscrew the lens
counter-clockwise and replace it with the new lens, screwing clockwise.
When first turning on the Teachcam w/ lllumaBase all the lights will come on
briefly during its self-check routine.
Turn on the light base by pressing the switch once for the side lights, twice for
the bottom light, three times for both sides and bottom and four times to turn off.
Hold the brightness control switches down until the image is focused and enhanced.
