Note: To use Amoeba with most MAC operating systems,

you will need MAC Version 10.4.9 or higher and must use a

MAC compatible image/photo capture program (iChat with

PhotoBooth, etc.). To ﬁnd PhotoBooth on most Macs, go to

your hard drive and click Applications. Choose PhotoBooth

from the list of applications. If a camera is already attached

to the computer, PhotoBooth will show up as your default.

You will need to change this to “Camera” or “USB 2.0

Camera.” You can now take photos with Amoeba using the

capture button. Please note: Many keyboards on Macs

have a USB port. Amoeba will not work through this USB

port because it does not have enough power. You must

connect the USB directly to your computer tower.

INSTALLING ULEAD PHOTO

MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE

Amoeba is packaged with a ULead Photo

Management Software CD-ROM, which allows you

to use your microscope for visual purposes and/

or for imaging with your computer when using

Microsoft Windows operating systems.

Before installing the software, remove the

microscope’s USB cable from your computer. Do

not connect the cable until the software installation

is complete. Insert the CD into your CD-ROM drive.

The software should automatically begin.

Open Windows Explorer and choose the drive

which the CD is inserted and start the selection

menu. Double click Run AutoRun.exe. or on

some operating systems “Auto Play” opens

automatically. If the software (for Windows

operating systems) does not begin automatically,

double click “My Computer” and right click the

CD-ROM icon. The software should then start.

Double click on the menu item “Install ULead

VideoStudio 7” or you may see a list of ﬁles and

select “Setup” - (sailboat icon) to begin installation.

> InstallShield Wizard will appear. Select

a language from the following choices;

Chinese (simpliﬁed or traditional),

English, French, German, Italian,

Japanese, Korean or Spanish. Next,

select the default choices (“Next”, etc.)

until “Finish” is seen and click it.

> Enter the software serial number found

on the CD-ROM cover. Keep the cover

in case you need to reinstall the software

for any reason.

Messages will appear (each operating system may

show a different message) to guide you through

the installation process.

Note: During installation you may see a pop up screen

about installing “Real Player” or “Quick Time” and just click

“Cancel”. From the initial set up screen ﬁles, you can also

choose to download “Install USB 2.0 PC Camera” which is

AmCap for viewing or imaging.

After the software is properly installed, you need

to restart your computer. You will have a desktop

icon called “ULead Video Studio”. If this icon does

not appear, you need to select the program from

your “Installed Programs” list when you use your

Amoeba.

ULead software program, please visit

AMOEBA OPERATION

PLUG IN THE USB CABLE TO THE COMPUTER

AND AMOEBA TO BEGIN VIEWING OBJECTS AND

SLIDES – You can view or image coins, stamps,

currency, gems, plants, foods, circuit boards,

specimen slides and many other objects. Read the

information for focusing, power and illumination

(see below) before proceeding.

Note: For solid objects you can view up to 10 mm

thickness at all powers or up to 15 mm at 10x. However, for

large solid objects, read the instructions (#5 below).

FOCUSING AND CHANGING POWER

(MAGNIFICATION) – When Amoeba is placed

directly over the object or slide, use the focus

knob to obtain a sharp focus. Rotate past the

focus and back and you will see how to obtain the

best focus position. With practice, it will become
