First, connect the power cable into the plug on the cable from the MiniVID. Then plug the transformer into a 110v wall
outlet. The red light on the top of the MiniVID should light up. If it does not, please ensure the outlet is working properly
then call LW Scientific.
Now connect the RCA connector from the Minivid into the “Video In” jack on a TV, VCR, projector, or other video
device. Change the setting on your TV or other device to recognize the input from the RCA jack.
Introduction
The MiniVID eyepiece camera is available with an RCA output
connection. Plug it in to your TV or monitor with RCA video input.
Then, attach it to any microscope for instant video micrography.
The innovative MiniVID eyepiece camera slips into any standard
microscope eyepiece tube, in place of the eyepiece, for crisp
imaging in an instant.
Computer Requirements
Using With a Computer
The MiniVID RCA may be used with an appropriately equipped computer or laptop. Check your computer’s specifica-
tions to see if it has an RCA video input. Most computers require the addition of an image capture card or a USB video
adapter in order to capture and print digital images from the MiniVID RCA. LW Scientific also offers a USB version of the
MiniVID whichwill connect to any Windows PC.
Use on a Microscope
To use on a microscope, first focus microscope on a slide as you normally would. If your microscope has a standard
23mm diameter eye tube (most compound scopes), remove the microscope’s eyepiece, and slide the MiniVID in its’
place. You should now see the slide on your TV or video device.
If your microscope has a 30mm diameter eye tube, as most stereoscopes have, then after removing the eyepiece,
you must insert the included 30mm adapter. Now, insert the camera. You should now be able to view the slide on
your TV.
If you are not able to view the slide, make sure the light is on your microscope, and that the MiniVID is plugged in
properly. If you continue to have a problem, contact LW Scientific.
Note: The MiniVID increases the apparent magnification of your microscope, which results in a smaller field of view.
General Precautions and Maintenance
Treat your MiniVID as you would any high-quality electronic device. Handle it with care, and do not expose it to
moisture or extreme temperatures. Only use the supplied power supply. Other power supplies, even if they “fit” the
power jack, may produce improper voltages causing damage to the MiniVID.
The lenses on the MiniVID can be cleaned with lens paper and lens cleaning solution. Do not touch the chip inside the
camera. If you are see spots on the video screen, there is likely dust on the chip. This can be cleaned by blowing
canned air into the camera.
