After installing the software, you are ready to attach your camera to the microscope.
First, you need to remove the zoom eyepiece (1) from the eyepiece tube (2) by turning it past the stop at the 10x position. Put a little pressure on the eyepiece (and one
hand on the base for support) and continue turning it counterclockwise to unthread it from the eyepiece tube. Take off the protective cap from the camera. Next, thread
the camera into the eyepiece tube (clockwise) until you feel it almost tight and quit. Lastly, you plug the USB cable into an open USB port on your computer.
When viewing or imaging a specimen slide or object, you can change the orientation of the image on the computer screen by rotating the camera to the position you
desire – generally do this counterclockwise so you don't tighten the camera in the eyepiece tube.

The software package you installed is called VP-EYE. The software allows you to observe specimen slides or objects on your computer. When you view with the
camera installed, the magnification depends on the objective lens you are using and also the size of your PC monitor.
Magnification Using Digital Camera - estimates
4x Objective using a 14" monitor --- 340x
15x Objective using a 14" monitor --- 1200x
30x Objective using a 14" monitor --- 2000x
Plug in the USB cable of the Microscope to your computer.
VP EYE contains basic image capture and organization for your photos (snapshots) and videos. Click on the VP EYE icon to begin (or from the programs in the Start
menu of your computer). The software is very intuitive and easy to use.
Note: The software package may not have some of the programs listed due to the version of this software package. You can print out a short instruction sheet from the
installed software. If you need additional information about the software, go to their website at
Your Celestron microscope and digital camera are precision optical instruments and should be treated with care at all times. Follow these care and maintenance
suggestions and your microscope will need very little maintenance throughout its lifetime.
•
When you are done using your microscope, remove any specimens left on the stage.
•
Turn off the top and bottom illuminators when you are done using the microscope.
•
If you will not be using your microscope for a long period of time, remove the batteries from the top and bottom illuminators.
•
Always place the dust cap over the eyepiece and the camera sensor when not in use or when being stored.
•
Store the microscope in a dry and clean place.
•
Be very careful if using your microscope in direct sun light to prevent damage to the microscope or your eyes.
•
Never point the sensor on the camera towards the sun or the camera can be damaged and cease working.
•
When moving your telescope, carry it by the "arm" with one hand.
•
Clean the outside surfaces with a moist cloth.
•
Never clean optical surfaces with cloth or paper towels as they can scratch optical surfaces easily.
•
Blow off dust with a camel's hair brush or an air blower from optical surfaces.
•
To clean fingerprints off of optical surfaces, use a lens cleaning agent and lens tissue available at most photo outlets and when cleaning do not rub in circles
as this may cause sleeks or scratches to occur.
•
Never disassemble or clean internal optical surfaces. This should be done by qualified technicians at the factory or other authorized repair facilities.
•
When handling glass specimen slides, use care as the edges can be sharp.
