FAQ

• Why does the device feel warm?
  Microscope work requires a camera, GPU (image processor), CPU (processor) and other devices to work together. During imaging or image processing, the microscope has a high load and consumes a lot of power. Long working hours may cause a certain degree of warmth. This is a normal phenomenon.

• Why the image is not clear?
  Please adjust the focus or focus tube and light irradiation angle. When conditions permit, auxiliary lighting can be added for better lighting effects!

• Why choose Playback Mode after recording, and there is no image on the display?
  It is possible that the video is not saved completely, the shooting is not successful, or the video file of the video is too large, and the system needs running time. Do not power off/shut down during video shooting!

• Why the image is abnormal after connecting to the computer?
  Please try to change a computer or a USB cable. If you cannot solve it, please contact our technical team in time.
