Insert a USB thumb drive into the USB host port on
the chamber. When Snapshot is enabled, a tap of the
“?” button will take a snapshot of the screen and store it on the USB thumb drive. The snapshot
file will be saved in a .bmp format.
To disable the Snapshot function, press the Menu button and then the Help icon (you may have
to scroll the screen to the end to see the Help icon). Then press the Disable camera icon. The
