      If the live image is not displayed on your Olympus Microscope, ensure the camera and PC are properly connected by turning OFF the PC and reconnecting the camera to the PCIe interface board using the camera interface cable. Also, verify that the microscope's illumination is turned ON, the light path selector is set to the camera side, and both the illumination light intensity and focusing are properly adjusted. Finally, ensure that sensitivity, exposure mode, exposure time, and level adjustments are correctly configured.
