Connection Methods
3
(1) Connecting the DS Camera Head
Be sure to turn off the DS-U3 before connecting the DS camera head.
Plug one end of the supplied camera cable into the camera connector on the DS-U3, and the other
end into the CAMERA OUT connector on the DS camera head. Plug the cable into the connectors
while 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.
DS-U3 is equipped with two connectors to connect DS camera heads. When two camera heads are
connected, you can select and operate either camera head using NIS-Elements or other software.
When you use only one DS camera head, connect it to the CAMERA 1 connector.
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 the like to
wipe it out.
3)
Screw the C mount adapter into the C mount
on the DS camera head.
Screw it in as far as it goes.
4)
Plug 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-Fi1c, DS-Qi1Mc, and DS-Ri1.
The x0.55 relay lens is recommended for the DS-Vi1.
For setting the microscope with the DS camera head, see "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 an IEEE1394b Cable
Plug one end of an IEEE1394b cable into the IEEE1394b connector on the PC, and the other end
into the one on the DS-U3.
