To attach F-mount optics:
If you have a monochrome camera and you have purchased the optional color filter, then carefully thread the
color filter to the C-mount ring on the camera. The opposite end of the color filter is a female F-mount
connector. Carefully connect your F-mount optics to the open connector of the color filter until it is mounted
securely. Use your optics controls to adjust focus.
NOTE: If you did not purchase a color filter, then you will need to purchase a C to F mount adapter to allow the
connection of F-mount optics. Your camera does not need to be monochrome in this situation.
Understanding the LED indicators
The LED indicators at the back of the camera give you important information about what your camera is doing:
WHITE: The white LED is the power indicator. This LED should always be lit when the camera is
connected to your computer and is turned on.
GREEN: The green LED is the exposure/integration indicator. It will stay illuminated for the duration
of the exposure of the CCD and turn off when not exposing.
BLUE: The blue LED is the cooling indicator. It will flash while cooling down to the set
temperature. When the temperature is locked and regulated, the blue LED will stay
illuminated. It will turn off when cooling is turned off through software.
