Additional Information

Setup

• Inspect the housing, bracket, hinges, lens and connection cables; remove the protective film from the lens before the first switch-on
• Place the product on a stable level surface of the teacher's desk so that an A4 document fits under the camera and the bracket does not overhang the edge of the table
• Unfold the bracket, position the camera above the working surface and point the lens downwards
• Connect by HDMI cable to a multimedia projector or interactive panel, or by USB cable to the teacher's computer
• Install the supplied software with Ukrainian-language interface and confirm that the camera image appears in the program window
• Set the frame and focus before the lesson: place an A4 sheet under the camera, adjust the camera tilt and bracket height until the sheet fits the frame without edge distortion, then focus by autofocus or manually

Demonstration

• Place the document under the camera evenly and check the image on the projector or panel before drawing the class's attention to it
• Enlarge small text or a drawing with the software rather than lifting the document towards the lens
• Place three-dimensional objects in the centre of the frame and rotate them slowly so that autofocus can settle; switch to manual focus and lock it if focus drifts
• Switch the built-in illumination on when little light falls on the document, and off when it produces glare on glossy paper
• Keep your hand beside the document rather than above it, so it does not block the image or upset autofocus

Recording and Live Broadcasting

• The product transmits the image in real time and records video
• Check free space on the computer and refocus before recording; do not move the product or change the camera tilt while recording
• The supplied software allows viewing the recording, capturing a single frame and transferring the image into a document or presentation
• Stop the broadcast or recording and close the program before disconnecting the cables

Operating Conditions

• Air temperature: +5 °C to +40 °C
• Relative humidity: 40 % to 60 %
• Atmospheric pressure: 84 to 107 kPa (630-800 mm Hg)

Safety

• Students work with the product under the supervision of a teacher
• Do not direct the built-in illumination into students' eyes and do not look at the LEDs from a short distance
• Install the product so that the bracket with the camera does not overhang the edge of the table: a tipped device falls lens down and fails
• Change the camera tilt and bracket position smoothly, only within the limits provided by the design, without forcing the hinges
• Route the HDMI and USB cables so that they do not cross walkways, hang in loops from the table or drag the product
• Do not touch the lens with your fingers and do not place hot objects, open vessels with liquid or reagents under the camera
• Do not disassemble the housing and do not expose the product to impacts, moisture or direct sunlight

Maintenance

• Clean the lens with a soft optics wipe, slightly dampened if required; blow dust off or remove it with a soft brush, and never wipe the lens dry with paper or a linting cloth
• Wipe the housing and bracket with a soft damp cloth, without solvents or abrasives; do not let liquid enter the connectors
• Check the condition of the HDMI and USB cables, the reliability of the connectors and the movement of the bracket hinges periodically; replace a hinge that does not hold its position and a cable with damaged insulation

Storage and Transport

• Store in a dry, clean, ventilated room at +5 °C to +40 °C and relative humidity of 60 % without condensation, protected from direct sunlight, moisture, dust and heat sources
• Store with the bracket folded, in the box or covered from dust, lens down on a soft pad
• Let a product brought in from the cold stand indoors until condensation disappears before switching it on
• During transport the packed product is secured so that it cannot shift, and the packaging is protected from precipitation and impact

Warranty and Disposal

• Warranty: remedy of defects and replacement of defective parts or of the equipment for three (3) years; availability of spare parts and consumables for five (5) years
• Disposal: WEEE marking - not to be disposed of with unsorted household waste; hand the product over to a separate collection point for waste electrical and electronic equipment. Metal parts are recycled as scrap metal, electronic components go to specialised processing
