My little 5 meg microscope camera arrived today.

Finally got it working using the software supplied but then all I could get was a black screen ..but after capturing a 4 second "first" video of something moving so I just need to go thru and see what I have missed ... anyways I thought why not use Sharpcap..so I did until the laptop ran out of power...so no more now asI am saving battery power for an imaging session tonight ..the genny has petrol but has stopped running again...however the camera a nice solid little unit and I have it in the right ep so I look thru the left..focus is linked..all good ..very happy.

Hello Alex,

You can find both the operator and service manuals for the AO Series 110 on this link.

Unless you want to keep the microscope in it's original state, you could consider changing the illumination to LED.
