Please plug in the electronic eyepiece into the computer via its USB cord.

Windows Vista and Windows 7 will automatically detect the camera and search for appropriate driver to download and install.

In the CD that came along with the product, please find IC50C-100006.EXEfile.

Double click on the file, and follow the installation instructions.

2. Installing the software

If you do not wish to keep running the software from the CD, feel free to copy the VirtualDub-1.9.7 32Bit folder or VirtualDub-1.9.7 64Bit folder to a location of your preference on your computer. Run the software in the same way as you would on the CD.
