Press and hold the Power button (usually marked with a ⑂ symbol) for a few seconds to turn the device on or off. The LCD screen will illuminate upon startup.

5.2 Switching Modes (Microscope/Telescope)

The DX-3 functions as both a microscope and a telescope. For microscopic viewing, position the lens close to the subject (0.5cm to macro). For telescope function, aim the device at distant objects (3M to 500M). The device automatically adjusts its focus range based on the distance to the object. Use the focus wheel for fine adjustments.

5.3 Réglage du grossissement et de la mise au point

The DX-3 offers up to 1600x digital magnification. Rotate the focus wheel on the lens barrel to achieve a clear image. For microscopic use, place the object directly under the lens. For telescopic use, point the device towards the desired distant object. Optimal focus points exist for different magnification levels.

5.4 Réglage de l'éclairage LED

For microscopic observation, the integrated LED lights provide illumination. Use the LED brightness adjustment knob (if present, typically a small wheel on the side) to control the intensity of the lights for optimal viewconditions.

5.5 Capture de photos et de vidéos

Alors que viewing on the LCD screen, press the 'OK' button to capture a still image. To record video, navigate to the video mode using the menu buttons and then press 'OK' to start/stop recording. Videos are recorded at 1080P 30fps. All captured media is saved to the inserted Micro SD card.

• L'appareil ne s'allume pas : Ensure the battery is charged. Connect the device to a power source and try again. If the issue persists, the battery may need replacement or service.
• No image on LCD screen: Check if the device is powered on. Ensure the lens cap (if any) is removed. Adjust the focus wheel. If connected to an external display, ensure the cable is securely connected and the display input is correct.
• Cannot focus clearly: Ensure the subject is within the appropriate working distance for microscope or telescope mode. Rotate the focus wheel slowly for fine adjustment. For microscopic use, ensure sufficient lighting from the LEDs.
• Software installation issues: If using the mini-CD, ensure your computer's CD drive is compatible. If not, download the latest software and drivers directly from the official Veho support website. Ensure your operating system is compatible with the software.
