The application program „AMCAP" is a universal program for different
devices. All menu points not described in this operating manual are not
included in the functional range of the borescope.
The borescope must only be used for inspections on de-energised equip-
ments. The camera head is made of metal and may lead to short-circuits.
For safety reasons, de-energise all plant components prior to each
inspection.
- Switch on the computer and start the operating system.
- Connect the borescope with the computer.
- Start the program „AMCAP". You can find this program on the desktop or via the button "Start,
All Programs" under the folder "AIT Telescope Driver".
- If another USB camera is already installed, this can lead to error messages during the pro-
gram start-up. In this case, select the driver "Telescope driver" under the menu point
"Devices" in the main menu. All installed devices are displayed under this menu point.
