The closer the object, the higher the magnification possible.Q: I can’t get my microscope to zoom past a very low magnification, how do i get to 250x?A: At the closest distance with the clear shield touching the object, there are two possible magnifications. The first is at around 50x, but if you continue to rotate the focus wheel, the image will get blurry, then sharp again at a much higher magnification.Q: How do I dim the LED lights?A: The LED lights can be dimmed or turned off by rotating the grey LED light control wheel near the top of the microscope body. If you are having problems with glare, try viewing your intended object at an angle.Q: When using the microscope, all I see is a black screen with no image.
How can I fix this?A: From the factory, the LED control is in the off position. For most indoor lighting conditions, you will need to turn the LEDs on by rotating the grey light control wheel in order to see anything.Q: When I plug in the microscope, I see no image and the LEDs do not turn on. What’s wrong?A: You must launch Digital Viewer or another webcam suite in order to use the microscope, nothing happens automatically on plug-in. The microscope’s LEDs won’t work unless the image sensor is actually being used.Q: I installed Digital Viewer on Windows, but I can’t figure out how to launch the software. What do I do?A: The installer creates a shortcut in your start menu, the default location being StartProgramsPlugable Technologies (varies slightly depending on OS version).
Many expect the installer to create a shortcut on the desktop, but we made the decision not to do this as we don’t want to clutter our customers desktop space without permission.Q: When I open Digital Viewer, why do I only see output from my other webcam?A: The microscope must be selected in the device menu under settings. The settings menu can be opened by clicking on the grey gear icon in the upper left of the window.Q: After a Windows Update, why does Digital Viewer tell me that my camera is already in use?A: There have been changes to how specific classes of devices are handled in Windows Privacy settings. We have a blog post detailing how to restore functionality here:Q: Why can’t I get this to work with my Android device?A: Android support is on a case by case basis.
The manufacturer of the Android device must allow USB webcams or this will not work.Q: Will this work on my iPad/iPhone or other iOS device?A: No, this will not work. IOS devices do not have support for external USB cameras.Q: When I plug in the microscope, it is only listed as an Audio device and I have an Oculus RiftThe microscope uses the same chipset as the Oculus DK2 sensors making the system believe it is just an additional Oculus sensor. The steps below should correct this problem! If not, please reach out to Support!.
Disconnect the Oculus Rift sensors and cameras. Connect the Plugable USB Digital Microscope. Open the Device Manager in Windows. This can be done several ways, if you’re uncertain how to access Device Manager perform these steps:. Press the Windows key and R (Win + R). In the window that pops up, type “devmgmt.msc” (without quotes), then click OK. Look for the microscope.
It will likely be listed as a Rift DK2 sensor, under ‘Oculus VR Devices’. If you’re not certain if you found it, disconnect the microscope and the entry should disappear. Reconnect the microscope and the entry should come back, that’s how we’ll know for certain we’re looking at the correct device. Once we’ve found the microscope, right click on it. Choose ‘Update Driver’ ‘Browse My Computer For Driver Software’ ‘Let Me Pick From A List Of Device Drivers On My Computer’, then look for ‘USB Video Device’, then click next to complete the install.NOTE: After completing these steps, Windows will still name the microscope as ‘Rift DK2 Sensor’. To confirm these steps worked, look for an entry for Rift DK2 Sensor under Imaging Devices (if the steps did not work it will be listed under Oculus VR Devices still). The user will need to select ‘Rift DK2 Sensor’ to use the microscope in Plugable Digital Viewer or other applications.Where to Buy.

Mod Edit: Split from - Hamluis.Hello everyoneRecently I bought a similar microscope, using the software coolingtech 2.0. It runs smoothly in windows 10, but have a problem pop up just now.
It was working just fine, can't be any better. But now it only display half the screen, no matter which camera size I chose. Just like from images below.
The camera seems to locked to the top left part, leaving the bottom right area in black. But when I click capture picture it just workout fine, which also captured the bottom right black area.

Welcome to the world of Windows 10.
Unfortunately the drivers included with the device will only work up to Windows 7 or possibly 8. Your only hope is to either wait for Windows 10 to supply a driver or revert back to Windows 7 if the upgrade was less than 30 days.I did a search on the Vendor and Device ID and could not find a Windows 10 driver but I did find the search led me to page. I can't say the software will install a Windows 10 driver or not. It is up to you if you want to download.Edit: I would also like to point out that the reversion to Windows 7 from Windows 10 has not been a smooth one for some people.Edit: This is the problem I have with Windows 10. Microsoft specifically says that Windows 10 will be free until your device is no longer supported. Any major Windows 10 update can render your device such as your microscope or printer useless.

Since it is no longer supported, you are expected to purchase a new one. With all previous versions of Windows, you knew your device would work until end of support and in this case Windows 7 end of support is 2020 which is another 4 years from now. Personally, if I had a Windows 7 computer, I would refuse the upgrade if I knew I would be purchasing a new computer after 2020.Edited by JohnC21, 10 January 2016 - 09:47 AM. I just tried this microscope on a Windows 7 64 bit laptop and got the same problem. When I plugged it in, it said it was installing the software, then I got 'Device driver software was not successfully installed'.I then tried this on a really old HP Compaq laptop running Windows 7 32 bit and it worked straight away. The moment I plugged in the microscope it said 'Software installed successfully'.On the microscope's driver disc auto.exe, there's a dotnetfx button.
When I hover the mouse pointer over it, it says 'Net Framework'. At the end of the manual it states, 'Please click dotnetfx to continue when the NET Framework 2.0 is necessary'. Hi, the driver file has an.exe extension. I opened WinRAR and chose the driver.exe file. If I hit 'Extract To' I get a pop up stating 'No archives found in selected files or folders'.
Was that what you meant by extract the contents?The driver file is a InstallScript Setup Launcher (not sure what that is).I've read that this has worked on 64 bit systems and even worked on my 64 bit Win 10 PC at one point. I wonder if it has something to do with what.NET each system is running.
Gameplay Arma III PCArma 3 download is necessary for few more reasons. Arma 3 free download. Although the game has a campaign mode the main focus is on multiplayer gameplay. This is really exceptional when you compare it to all the other FPS games out there, like COD or BF. The games action takes place on a huge, beautiful island. Games looks simply insane and if you are interested mainly in graphics you shouldn’t be disappointed.
I ran CCleaner on the old HP Compaq laptop to see the uninstall section so I can see what.NET it was running but it only displayed 5 programs! None of which were.NET.
