that this manual be used to optimize camera operation.
2. CAMERA CARE
2.1
Cleaning the Sensor Window
Raptor cameras require no regular maintenance except occasional external cleaning of the sensor
window (the glass window between the camera sensor and the microscope or lens). Use optical grade
isopropyl to clean this window. A cotton swab can be used, but may leave some fibres on the window,
so be careful. To avoid this, you could also use a lens tissue or a cleaning swap such as a texwipe.
Forced air can be applied to remove any loose particles. Should any other issues occur please contact
your local agent.
CAUTION
—
The camera’s sensor and circuits are sensitive to static discharge. Ensure that you are
using a static strap or completely grounded at all times to release any static energy before you clean
the window.
CAUTION
—
Do not use acetone.
