  1. The camera is stored at the back of the unit, along the bottom. With the unit facing towards you, run your fingers 1 inch (2.5cm) up the back of the left edge. You will feel a half circle shaped cut-out. Push the camera head backwards via this recess & fully remove it.
  2. Unfold the camera
  3. Locate the camera slot, positioned on the top of the unit, at the front, 1.4 inches (3.5cm) from the left-hand side.
  4. With the shorter arm (containing the USB port) facing downwards & the other part of the arm facing towards you, angle the camera head a few degrees forwards & gently insert into the camera slot.

Plugging In

Plug the tip of the power brick into the unit’s power socket, located on the rear of the unit, on the far-right hand-side, 2.5 inches (6cm) up (a round area with a round recess). Ensure the power brick’s cable is plugged in and connect it to the mains.

Turning On / Off

The on / off button is located on the top back right of the machine. It is a round button recessed in a round hole. It illuminates blue when the device is on. It takes 20 seconds for ReadEasy to start & announce it is ready.

Positioning Documents for Capture

  • Align the top edge of A4 (Letter) documents with the front of the unit.
  • Align A3 (Tabloid), magazines and larger documents in landscape (long edge left-to-right). Push the document up against the unit and slide it right so that the right edge of the document is in line with the edge of the opened fold-out positioning guide.
