IMPORTANT: Use care when adjusting the Handpiece lens head. The swivel lens head turns only 165º left or right from the center point. Forcing the head past the 165º limit will damage the device.

Prior to rotating the lens, slide the Camera Cover about 1/2 to 3/4 inches up on the handle to provide enough slack in the cover for unrestricted rotation.

330º Swivel Lens Head Adjustment - The 330º swivel lens head design allows the lens orientation to be adjusted nominally 165º left or right from the center point to easily view and capture all desired angles during an examination..

Keypad Buttons - Each keypad button provides the Polaris Camera Handpiece fingertip control over the PC streaming video capture software via the Handpiece Cable. The specific functions performed by the keypad buttons depend on a software installation that supports the 2-button handpiece. Typical keypad actions provided below..

NOTE: Simultaneously depressing both keypad buttons for approximately 3 seconds deactivates the Camera Handpiece LED light source. This is commonly used when imaging an X-ray on a light box.

(1)	Top Keypad Button	Press and release to send a Button 1 command
		to the PC. While the specific function
		performed depends on the setting of the
		video capture software application installed
		on the PC, this command typically freezes
		and unfreezes the image that is displayed
		on the computer monitor.
(2)	Bottom Keypad Button	Press and release to send a Button 2 command
		to the PC. While the specific action depends
		on the video capture software installed, it
		typically saves the image displayed on the
		computer monitor to the computer hard disk..
(3)	Handpiece Connector	A 8-pin connector socket that accepts
		connection of the keyed 8-pin quick
		disconnect plug end of the Handpiece
		Cable..
