Using the microscope imaging system as a standalone system
The microscope with Axiocam 208/202 can be used in standalone mode. The camera acts as the control
interface and is powered by microscope via the USB (Commercial Micro-D power) cable. A USB Type-C
drive is included in the package and can be connected via the USB slot at the back of the camera for
storing data. Then images are recorded and saved to the USB drive. Functions of the microscope stand
such as the Light Manager and encoding are automatically launched. The camera is equipped with image
enhancement functions such as true color and noise reduction.
NOTE
Please note that the focus plane of the camera must be adjusted to the focus plane of the
eyepieces via the camera adapter.
