4. Using Max Digital Magnifier   

The Max Digital Magnifier automatically  

focuses when it is placed directly over a  

desired object and projects a magnified  

image onto the LCD screen.  By rotat-

ing  the magnification dial to increase 

the size and pushing the viewing options 

button  to change viewing modes, you 

will be  able to find what settings work 

best for  you.  (See Figure 7) 

NOTE:  The magnification dial only 

turns  from 12 o’clock to 3 o’clock.  Do 

not  force the dial beyond these two 

points. 
For more information on how to use the  

Max Digital Magnifier, please refer back  

to page 11 “Using Max.

Connecting Max or Flipper to the LCD Power Pack  

If you have purchased the Max camera separate 
from the LCD Power Pack, you will need to 
connect them together.  To do so, simply plug 
the end of the cable connector which looks 
like a telephone connector coming from the 
Max camera into the open jack labeled “Cam-
era” on the back of the LCD Power Pack.  
(See Figure 1)   

Connecting LCD Power Pack to a TV Set with Video In 

To connect the LCD Power Pack to a TV set with “Video In” you 
will need the 6-foot RCA video cable. Plug one end of the RCA 
cable into the yellow jack on the back of the LCD Power Pack la-
beled “Video Out” and the other end into the yellow “Video Input” 
jack on the front or back of your TV.  Then switch your TV to Vid-
eo Mode. This will allow you to view magnified images on your 
TV screen. (See Figure 2) Note:  The LCD Power Pack video output 
standard is the same as the Max camera used (NTSC or PAL ver-
sion).
