  • Page 5 DP80 IMPORTANT The microscope digital camera DP80 is designed to be connected to a camera adapter mounted on an Olym- pus UIS2/UIS series of optical microscope (not applicable to the LB series) for use in recording of microscopic magnified images at high speed and highest resolution while maintaining high picture quality and high color reproduction.
  • Page 6 Caution on Image Data Storage The recorded image data may be lost (destroyed) in the following cases. Note that Olympus will not assume any liabilities for the loss (destruction) of recorded data. The image data may also be destroyed by an unexpected cause. It is recommended to back up the data periodically.
  • Page 7 Caution labels are placed at parts where special precaution is required when handling and using the microscope. Always pay attentions to the caution labels. Rear of the camera head Positions of caution labels PCIe interface board If the caution label becomes dirty or is peeled off, contact Olympus for replacement.
  • Page 8 Never connect or disconnect the interface cable while the standby switch of the PC is set to ON. Otherwise, CAUTION malfunction may result. 1. Before connecting or disconnecting the interface cable, make sure that the standby switch of the PC is set to OFF. When connecting the interface cable, push in the connector all the way and ensure that the connector will not slip out before setting the standby switch to ON.
