Getting Started
4
Before using your handheld digital microscope (HDM), you first need to install the driver, software, and related files.
This is a short and easy process.
First, put the Celestron Installation CD-ROM in your computer CD/DVD drive. Do not connect the USB cable of the
microscope to the computer until after the driver is installed or your microscope will not work!
Note: Different versions of Microsoft Operating Systems (and even among the same systems) will show some variations in
the screens you see during installation. Just follow the screen instructions and you should have no problems with the
installation.
The InstallShield installation wizard window will open and say “Ready to Install the Program”.
5
Click “Install” and the installation will
automatically install the driver and related files. Before the installation is complete, it is possible
that you will see this screen if using Windows
XP. If so, click on “Continue Anyway” as the
program for the HDM will not harm your
computer.
When complete, the InstallShield window opens and says
“InstallShield Wizard Complete” and you will then click “Finish”.
6
Next, connect the USB cable (which is attached to the digital microscope) to your computer. The LED illumination will
automatically come on at the bottom of the microscope. At the bottom of your screen you will see a small pop-up that says
“Found New Hardware” and “USB20Camera” and then “Envision V-Cam”.
A window will open that says “Welcome to the Found New Hardware Wizard”. This
wizard helps you install the software for the digital microscope (AMCap).
The wizard will ask you to insert the installation CD. Leave the circle checked
“install the software automatically” and then click “Next”.
7
A screen will come up noting “Please wait while the wizard searches…” (for the device) and this can take a few or several
minutes to complete depending on your particular computer.
When the device is found, then a screen comes up saying “Please wait
while the wizard installs the software…”
Note: You may on some computers now see a screen somewhat similar to the warning on page four. Just click on “Continue
Anyway” as no harm will come to your computer.
8
Then a screen comes up “Completing the Found New Hardware Wizard”
and it notes that the wizard has finished installing the software. It further
states that the hardware installed will not work until you restart your
computer. Click “Finish” to close the wizard. You can remove the
installation CD from the CD/DVD drive as it is no longer needed.
A screen will come up asking you if you want to restart your computer. Make sure all open programs are closed and then click
“Yes” to restart your computer.
9
Now you are ready to use your Celestron digital microscope.
Push “Click” on the top of the microscope. On most computers a screen will open up “Choose Application” and you have a
choice of picking from various imaging applications you may have on your computer – Note: if you do not see this screen,
please see the section below.
You can choose whichever imaging program you wish for video or
snapshots. Once you have done this you can begin using your
microscope.
10
If you choose AMCap (which was on the installation CD), the AMCap
screen will open up and the green light on top of the HDM will come on
indicating it is ready to use. Typically you will automatically be in the
“preview” mode but if not, go to “options” and check “Preview”.
If you want to do video imaging, you should first set files, allocation of file space, etc. from the AMCap tool bar. Once settings
are done you are ready to image. To begin (“start capture”) and end (“stop capture”) videos, you click “start capture” and “stop
capture” from your keyboard and not from the “click” on the microscope. After you are done imaging you can view your video
from the file location you set up.
