Using a Micro SD Card to Save Images
By using a micro-SD card, you can record videos and take photos and save them for later importing to your
computer or other devices for viewing and use. There is a TF card slot on the top of the back of the microscope,
just insert the micro-SD card into the slot.
Note:
1. TF card does not come with the microscope, please purchase your own, class 10 high-speed TF card is
recommended.
2. Note the card insertion direction, with the TF card chip facing downward, please refer to Figure 7.
3. Push it into the slot until it clicks, if the card is not in place, the card will be ejected.
If the display shows "Memory Card Full" or "Memory Card Error" after card insertion or when taking pictures and
videos, please format the memory card first.
Formatting steps are as follows: Press and hold the ‘M key’ - Short press the ‘M’ key - ‘V’(down) key -
Select the "Format" option - ‘OK’ key to confirm.
*If a TF card is inserted while the microscope is operating, the unit will automatically shut down. In this case,
press and hold the power switch button until the screen lights up again.
