Connection Methods

(1) Connecting the DS Camera Head
Be sure to turn off the DS-U2 before connecting the DS camera head.
Connect the CAMERA connector on the DS-U2 and the CAMERA OUT connector on the DS
camera head using the provided camera cable. Insert the cable into the connectors with pinching
the locking tabs. When the cable is inserted as far as it goes, the locking tabs return to their
original positions, locking the connector in place.
Mounting the DS camera head on a microscope
1)
Remove the C mount cap from the C mount
on the DS camera head.
2)
Make sure there is no dust on the C mount
adapter.
If there is, use an air blower or other tool to
remove it.
3)
Screw the C mount adapter into the C mount
on the DS camera head.
Screw it in as far as it goes.
4)
Insert the C mount adapter into the vertical
tube of the microscope.
Use the clamping screw on the vertical tube
to secure the C mount adapter.
Likewise, a relay lens can be attached.
The x0.7 relay lens is recommended for the DS-Fi1, DS-Qi1Mc, DS-5M, DS-5Mc, and DS-Ri1.
The x0.55 relay lens is recommended for the DS-2Mv, DS-2MBW, and DS-2MBWc.
For setting the microscope with the DS camera head, read "Microscope Setting" in Chapter 5.
Installing an optional C mount lens on the DS camera head
Select an attachable lens (see "Peripheral Equipment" in Chapter 2.), and then screw it into the C
mount.
Note that the image quality produced by this product is tuned for microphotography. The tripod
mount on the DS camera head can also be used to mount the DS camera head on a tripod.
(2) Connecting to a PC with a USB Cable
Connect the USB connector on the PC and the USB (D) connector on the DS-U2 using the USB 2.0
