Usage Features

Installation and Quick Start

The manual provides clear instructions for installing the bracket and optional metal clips. To begin, users connect the power cable, HDMI cable (for external display), and insert a Micro-SD card for storage.

Button Instructions

The device features a set of buttons on the monitor for power, menu/mode selection, zoom (up/down), OK/start video record, picture capture, and focus control. An infrared sensor is present for remote control operation. Additional ports include an endoscope interface (optional), USB port, HDMI port, and a reset hole.

Adjust Magnification & Focus

Magnification is adjusted by lifting the monitor to change the object distance, while focus is controlled via a dedicated focus controller.

Save Picture and Video

Images and videos are saved to a Micro-SD card. The manual emphasizes that the memory card does not support hot-swapping. To record videos, users press the "OK" button, and to take photos, they press the "capture" button.

Review and Manage Images

In playback mode (accessed via the "MODE" button), users can cycle through saved pictures and videos. Long-pressing the "MENU" button allows for file management.

Remote Control Instructions

A remote control provides convenient access to various functions, including capture, mode selection, zoom, brightness, cross line settings, file lock/unlock, contrast, lens image switching (for endoscope), default settings, and black & white mode.

Settings

The microscope offers extensive settings, accessible by long-pressing the "M" button in video standby mode or photo mode. These settings include resolution, EV exposure, date stamp, sharpness, freeze, contrast, color, burst mode, quality, white balance, and ISO.

Gridline Setting

Users can enable and customize gridlines for precise alignment and measurement. Settings include cross line, line, direction (horizontal/vertical), position, color, and width. These settings can be adjusted using the remote control.

Save Setting

To ensure settings are saved, the device must be turned off by long-pressing the power button, followed by disconnecting the power. Settings will not be saved if power is cut off directly.

Three Output Modes

HDMI Output: Connects the microscope to an external HDMI monitor for a larger display.
USB Output: Connects the microscope to a computer for viewing and measurement using the "Microscope Measure" software. The software allows for various measurements (e.g., distance, angle, area) and image analysis functions (e.g., edge detection, inverse color). Calibration is a crucial step for accurate measurements, involving placing a ruler under the microscope and defining a unit length within the software.
Wi-Fi Output (Test function): Allows connection to mobile phones or tablets via the "Ucam Dashcam" app. This feature enables synchronous display of the microscope screen, recording, and photo capture on the mobile device. A memory card must be inserted for Wi-Fi functionality.

Maintenance Features

Clean Environment: Keep the device in a clean, dry environment, away from corrosive substances.
Lens Cleaning: If image quality is poor, clean the lens gently with a dry, soft cloth.
Display Care: Avoid pressing hard or hitting the display with sharp objects. Clean the screen with a dry, soft cloth; do not spray water or cleaners directly.
Troubleshooting: The manual includes a FAQ section addressing common issues such as power-on problems, unclear images, unsaved settings, memory card errors, software installation issues, measurement inaccuracies, and display problems with HDMI monitors.
Warranty: A warranty card outlines conditions for coverage, excluding damage from improper use, accidents, unauthorized repairs, or expired warranty periods.
