Installation
The Liberty Scholar 2 is supplied the following components:
oMain Unit
oEX2 Distance Camera
oPower supply adapter
oMains cable
oCarry case
When setting up, it is important to choose your workplace carefully to avoid an
uncomfortable or awkward position. The monitor should be below eye level to
avoid strain.
Remove the Liberty Scholar 2 main unit from its case and place on the
work surface.
Depress both handle release buttons and rotate the handle by two clicks
to allow you to look onto or slightly down on the display.
IMPORTANT! If the handle is set back too far, the camera will not be
able to focus on the reading material at high levels of zoom.
The camera can focus on material up to about 25mm / 1-inch tall. If
you wish to look at objects taller than this, tilt the camera slightly and
move the object appropriately to increase the distance between the
object and the camera.

Rotate the slide bar out of the stowed position and slide the bar outward.
Connect the Ex2 Camera firmly onto the slide bar and plug the camera
lead into the topmost socket at the right hand side of the main unit
As the unit is supplied with the battery partially charged, we recommend
that you initially operate the Liberty Scholar 2 from the power supply.
Plug the power supply into a wall socket and insert the connector into the
right hand side of the unit above the Camera cable.

Reading Lens
The reading lens should be flipped up and onto the back of the camera
when viewing into the distance. It should be placed firmly down and
over the camera lens when looking at closer items.
There is a mirror mode available. If the camera is looking out
horizontally and the reading lens is down over the camera, it will
automatically mirror the image. In this mode the Liberty Scholar can
operate in a similar manner to a magnifying mirror.
Mode Button
Press the small round button for overview mode or to freeze the
image. The operation performed depends on how the button function
has been programmed. Refer below to the next section –“Menu”.
Zoom-In Button
Press to zoom in (magnify). At high zoom levels, the camera cannot
focus on objects closer than 1 meter with the reading lens up or closer
than 16cm with the reading lens in place. Objects closer than this may
or may not focus correctly depending on the level of zoom –this is
not a fault in the camera.
Zoom-Out Button
Press to Zoom out.
Camera Customization Menu
Certain aspects of the camera’s operation can be customized through
its menu. The camera’s menu can be accessed by keeping the
Function (top) button pressed for three seconds. Move up or down
through the menu by using the up (zoom-in) or down (zoom-out)
buttons. Press the Function button to select the function.

This allows you to choose between full automatic and camera auto
focus only when the zoom position has been adjusted.
Full Auto Focus
When selected the camera will constantly monitor and adjust its
focus without the user’s intervention.
Page 10
Push To Focus
When selected the camera will only adjust the focus position
when Zoom In or Zoom Out buttons are pressed.
Orientation
By default the camera is orientated away from the user. This
orientation makes it easier to flip up for distance viewing and down
for close-up work. But the camera can also be orientated towards the
user, reducing the distance to the user has to stretch when writing.
In the orientation menu you can choose from Orient Away or Orient
Near.
Camera Orientated “Away” Camera orientated “Near”
