Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of a Celestron microscope. Your microscope is a
precision optical instrument made of high quality materials to ensure durability and
long life, and designed to give you a lifetime of pleasure with minimal maintenance.
This microscope can be used for virtually anything that traditional microscopes are
used for: Hobbyists, Educators, Medical Labs, Industrial Inspection, Engineering
Applications, Teachers, Students, Science Applications, Doctor’s Offices, Police
Agencies, Government Testing, and general use by consumers.
Before attempting to use your microscope, please read through the instructions to
familiarize yourself with the functions and operations to make usage easier for you.
See the microscope diagram to locate the parts discussed in this manual.
The microscope provides powers from 10x to 40x and 150x (powers with a 19”
monitor). It is ideally suited for examining solid objects such as coins, stamps,
rocks, relics, insects, plants, skin, gems, circuit boards, various materials, and many
other objects. Also, you can examine specimen slides at low and high powers.
With the included software, you can observe the magnified images or capture video
or take snapshots with Microsoft Windows XP and Vista operating systems. You can
also use the microscope with other image capture software that you may have on
Windows XP & Vista. If you are using a MAC, you can take videos and snapshots
but you need image/photo capture software for MAC. You will also need a CD/DVD
drive as well as an open USB port.
Note: This product was designed and intended for ages 13 and older!
