CARE
Keep the camera dry; if it gets wet, wipe it
dry immediately. Use and store the camera
only in normal temperature environments.
Handle the camera carefully; do not drop it.
Never use harsh or abrasive cleaners or or-
ganic solvents on the camera or on any of its
parts.
To remove dust and dirt, blow gently on the
camera's lens. Moisten the lens by breathing
lightly on it.
Wipe the lens gently with a soft lint-free cloth
or an untreated lens-cleaning tissue.
Some computers are shipped without the USB port mode
enabled. To enable the USB port, you must run your com-
puter's CMOS setup program. This setup program is only
available when you power up the computer. Since the proce-
dure is different for each system, refer to your computer's
owner's manual for details.
1. Adjust the focus (see "Installing/Testing the Software/
Hardware" on Page 4).
2. Use the application software to adjust the sharpness
settings.
Installing other applications sometimes changes the com-
puter's system registry so that the camera no longer works.
If this happens, reinstall the camera's driver (see "Installing/
Testing the Software/Hardware" on Page 4).
Adjust the bandwidth within your camera's video processor/
amplifier settings. See "Adjusting Video Proc Amp (Proces-
sor/Amplifier)" on Page 8.
If your computer has more than one USB port, try plugging
the camera into a different port.
Unplug any unneeded USB devices.
Do not use a cleaning solution unless it is de-
signed specifically for PC camera lenses.
Do not wipe the camera's lens with chemical-
ly treated eyeglass lens tissues as it might
scratch the lens.
Modifying or tampering with the camera's in-
ternal components can cause a malfunction
and might invalidate its warranty. If your
camera is not performing as it should, take it
to your local RadioShack store for assis-
tance.
