Installing a Camera Adapter & Camera – 
(Fig. 30)

  

 
Install the C-mount adapter onto the camera before 
mounting it to the trinocular head port by first removing any 
dust cap(s) from the C-mount adapter and camera, then 
gently screw the threaded top of the C-mount onto the 
bottom of the camera. 
 
Remove the dust cap on the trinocular head port.   
 
Using the included Hex wrench, loosen the set screw on the 
trinocular head camera port until it is flush with the inside, 
then gently mount the C-mount/camera into the port and 
tighten the set screw. 
 
Observe the image through the eyepieces by pushing the 
light path selection lever all the way in, then bring the image 
into focus.   
 
Pull the light path selection lever all the way out, and while 
observing the image on a monitor, adjust the focus of the 
image via the C-mount collar until it matches the focus as 
seen through the eyepieces. 
 

NOTE:

  

Be sure to keep all dust caps in a safe place for 

future use when a camera is not mounted to the 
microscope.
