Software: Getting Started with Lumaview
The following sections give instructions for getting started with Lumaview on the LS720, LS620, LS560 and
LS460 and are intended as a Startup Manual only. Not all options are given and not all features may be
explained in any particular section. The complete User Guide for Lumaview is contained in the Help Section
after Lumaview is opened. Click on Help in the Title Bar to open the pulldown menu and click Contents, or
simply Click F1 to open the Help Section.

when the Window is not maximized. When Live Image Window is maximized, [Live Image
Window] transfers to the end of the Main Window title bar.
The Live Image Window status bar at the bottom shows communication with the camera sensor
via continuous display of several useful metrics: current frame rate, data transfer rate, number of
frames collected thus far in the session, frame size, and session date and time start.

Main Window with Lumaview v(version number) in the title bar. When Live Image Window is
maximized, the title bar becomes Lumaview v(version number) – [Live Image Window].
