Start of operation
1. Installing the software
Caution!
Important files may be changed or overwritten when you are installing
programs or drivers.
Before installing the program make a backup of your original files
which you will be able to access later if problems occur after installing
the software.
Note
Install the software before connecting the USL web camera and stereo
headset.
14
Place the CD in the drive. The installation menu will start automatically.
Note: If installation does not start automatically the so-called
“Autorun” function may be disabled.
Manual installation without Autorun:
Click “Start” and select the “Run” feature.
Now enter the name (letter) of the CD-ROM drive followed by a colon
and the program name “Autorun.exe”
Confirm with “OK”.
The installation menu will suggest the following items for installation:
- PC camera driver (hardware driver)
- ArcSoft Software Suite (photo editing software)
Install the hardware driver and editing software in sequence. Follow the
instructions on the screen.
15
Re-start your computer.
The editing software automatically places a shortcut to the programs
“PhotoImpression 5” and “VideoImpression 5” on your desktop,
which you can use to transmit images after the USB web camera is
connected.

2. Connecting the USB web camera to the
PC
Connect your USB web camera to your computer as follows:
The driver software must already be installed (page 3).
Switch on the computer and all peripheral devices (monitor, printer
modem, etc.) and wait until operating system has finished booting.
Insert the end of the USB cable (n) into one of
your computer’s empty USB ports (o).
Windows
®
will recognise that new hardware has been connected and will
complete the installation.
Note: A dialogue box will appear if your system is set up to install
signed software/drivers (released by Microsoft) only. The wording in
the box will differ from system to system. Example: “The ….. driver
you wish to install did not pass the test ….”
This does not indicate that the driver is faulty, but merely points out
that there is no Microsoft signature. You can skip this screen. Click
“Next” to install the driver.

The ideal angle is achieved by setting up the USB camera in the centre of
the monitor.
Adjust the focus ring on the lens to focus the camera. Keep an eye on the
live image as you are doing this.
You can also set up the camera on a table or hold it in your hand.
Positioning the camera lens
You can turn the camera body on
the base to achieve the desired
angle.

card.

Caution!
