Important information

About the contents of this manual

This manual describes the installation of the DP2-BSW image analysis program, the

setting up of the DP70 camera for use with the DP2-BSW image analysis program,

and the way to operate the DP70 camera with the DP2-BSW image analysis

program.

Warning

Warning This manual does not describe the installation of the camera itself. For this you

should use the DP70 Digital Microscope Camera Instruction Manual that was

supplied with your camera.

See also You will find a detailed description of the camera controls, based on a sample

camera, in your image analysis program's manual. You will find a description of

the camera specific functions in this manual, starting on page 14.

Warning Do not disassemble the camera housing! CCD image sensors are easily damaged

by static discharge.

Warning To avoid damage to the cable and the risk of fire, make sure that the camera cables

do not come into contact with the light source or other sources of heat.

Warning In case of a fire toxic gases can be given off!

Warning Arrange the cables in such a way that nobody can stumble or trip over them.

Warning Do not touch cover slip (over the CCD chip) with your hand or have any object come

in contact with glass surface. Should dust stick to the cover slip, blow it off gently with

an air blower. (For dust stuck due to static electricity, ionized air is recommended.)

Warning Do not subject the camera to too much mechanical shock.

Warning If the cable is damaged or severed, you risk an electric shock if you come in direct

contact with it. Shut off the hardware and change the cable immediately!

Warning To prevent the microscope from toppling down, avoid using microscope attachments

that may make the total height of the microscope above 1 m when they are attached.

Important information

Operating Environ-

ment

•Do not expose to strong light (sunlight) for long periods.

•High temperatures (> 40°C) and humidity (> 80%) can influence the camera's

capabilities. Avoid storage or usage under such conditions.

Maintenance and Storage

1) To clean the lenses and other glass components, simply blow dirt away using a

commercially available blower and wipe gently using a piece of cleaning paper

(or clean gauze).

If a lens is stained with fingerprints or oil smudges, wipe it with gauze slightly

moistened with commercially available absolute alcohol.

2) Parts other than the glass components should be cleaned by wiping with a clean

cloth. Do not use organic solvents to remove major stains. Use a soft cloth

slightly moistened with a neutral detergent solution.

3) Do not disassemble any part of the camera as this could cause a malfunction or

reduced performance.

Warning Since the absolute alcohol is highly flammable, it must be handled carefully.

Be sure to keep it away from open flames or potential sources of electric sparks - for

example, electrical equipment that is being switched on or off.

Also remember to always use these chemicals only in a well-ventilated room.
