OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BS-18HD/USB USB ENDOSCOPE 8MM
ITEM NO.: 1198816
INTENDED USE
In conjunction with a computer, the endoscope is a visual aid for optical troubleshooting and the
inspection of voltage-free facilities and equipment. The endoscope is connected via a USB 2.0
interface. Thanks to the flexible gooseneck, the camera on the top of the device can be moved to
positions that are normally inaccessible. Four white LEDs also enable recording in very dark areas.
The gooseneck and the camera head are waterproof and designed for use in aqueous liquids
(no acids or alkaline solutions). Only hold the camera head and gooseneck in liquids that are not
connected to a power source. The gooseneck must not be submerged beyond the "IP67 max. water
level" mark. The grip must not be exposed to moisture or submerged in liquid. The supply voltage is
provided via a USB interface. Image transmission also takes place via this interface.
For safety and approval purposes (CE), you must not rebuild and/or modify this product. If you

addition, improper use can cause hazards such as short circuiting, fire, electric shock etc. Read the

supply unit also involves danger to life by electric shock! Allow the product to reach
room temperature before connecting it to the power supply and putting it to use. This
may take several hours.
• The endoscope may only be used for inspecting facilities that are not connected to a
power source. The camera head is made from metal and can lead to short circuits. For
safety reasons, disconnect all parts of the facility from the power supply before each

SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
The "ViewPlayCap" application is a generic program for supported Windows® operating
systems. Any menu options that are not described in these operating instructions are not
applicable to the functions of this endoscope.
1. Start the operating system on your computer.
2. Ensure that the endoscope is not connected to the computer before installing the application.
3. Place the accompanying CD into your CD or DVD drive. Administrator rights are required to
install the software.
4. Installation begins automatically after inserting the software CD. If this does not happen, navigate
to your CD or DVD drive and double-click on the "setup.exe" file to start the installation.
5. Installation will be terminated automatically after clicking on the confirmation prompt. A restart
may be required depending on the operating system. Refer to Microsoft® Windows user support.
6. ViewPlayCap is now installed on your computer.
For supported MAC OS X operating systems, open the "Photo Booth" application and choose
the USB 2.0 camera. You can then take snapshots or videos with "Photo Booth".
OPERATION
a) Starting ViewPlayCap - preparing for photo and video capture
1. Begin by connecting the endoscope to an available USB 2.0 port on your computer. If possible,
remove other digital image capture devices first.
Star the ViewPlayCap program. The application identifies the endoscope camera as an image
capture device.
Error messages may appear if there are several image capture devices connected to the
computer at the same time. Go to the "Devices" menu option and choose "USB camera".
b) Video capture
1. Go to "Options" in the main menu of ViewPlayCap and click on "Preview". The camera image is
shown as a preview on the computer monitor. Double-click to close the preview. Recordings will
be saved in the "Videos" folder if "Capture" → „Set Time Limit" → „Use Time Limit" was chosen.
If this is not the case, the video will be saved to the location indicated under "Set Capture File".
2. Go to "Capture" in the main menu of ViewPlayCap and click on "Start capture". Confirm the video
recording with "OK". The video recording starts; it ends on its own after the set time limit. If there
is no set time limit, the recording ends when the maximum size of the file to be saved is reached.
Terminate a recording by clicking on "Start Capture".
3. Set the brightness of the camera light by turning the LED control wheel (3).
