CARING FOR YOUR CAMERA
The Retiga-SRV camera requires no regular maintenance except occasional external cleaning of the
CCD window (the glass window between the camera sensor and the microscope or lens).
To clean the CCD window:
CAUTION — The camera’s CCD sensor, and circuits are sensitive to static
discharge. Ensure you are using a static strap or are completely
grounded at all times to release any static energy before you clean the
CCD window.
•
Use clean forced air (available at stores that sell cameras and computer cleaning supplies)
to dust the CCD window.
•
If the image still appears dirty, gently wipe the face of the CCD window with a small
amount of optical grade isopropyl alchohol and lens paper.
•
Apply forced air again to remove any loose particles.
To clean the iGlo (OLED) Display:
CAUTION — The camera’s OLED display is very sensitive to corrosive
materials and it is recommended to follow the instructions below very
carefully to avoid damage to the display.
•
Use clean forced air (available at stores that sell cameras and computer cleaning supplies)
to dust the CCD window.
CAUTION — Do not use acetone. Acetone will corrode the OLED Display!!
•
If the image still appears dirty, gently wipe the face of the CCD window with a small
