Introduction
Introducing the DMC Digital Microscope Camera
The Polaroid DMC Digital Microscope Camera captures high-quality digital color images from light microscopes and other optical instruments. The camera uses a unique, millionpixel, 12.15mm CCD (charge coupled device) to capture pictures with up to 16.7 million colors. It transfers these pictures in seconds to an IBM-PC-, PowerMacor PowerPCcompatible computer as high resolution (800x600 pixels) or super-high resolution (1600x1200 pixels) TIFF images.
Dmccam.ai
Using the Microsoft Windows or PowerMac/PowerPC software provided with the camera, you can display a viewfinder image on your computer screen, choose resolution and other options, enhance color balance, brightness, contrast and sharpness, then transfer the picture to your image-processing application or a disk drive.
The camera has a SCSI-2 connection requiring no framegrabber or other special hardware or software. (For use with IBM PCs or PC-compatible computers, the camera requires a SCSI adapter board.)
Using a standard .63, 1:1, or larger c-mount adapter, the camera attaches easily to microscopes for most types of transmitted-light and reflected-light microscopy.
The camera also features a tripod mount and x-sync connection for use with standard c-mount lenses on a copystand.
For more detailed camera specifications, see page 41.
Using the DMC software to view and capture pictures taken | |
with the DMC camera requires the following hardware and | |
software. If you do not have the required configuration, | |
contact your Polaroid dealer. | |
PC systems | · An IBM PC or compatible computer, with at least a 66 MHz |
Pentium-class processor and 20 megabytes (MB) of RAM (32 | |
MB recommended). | |
· Microsoft Windows 95 or Windows NT operating system. | |
· A monitor and graphics adapter capable of displaying 24-bit | |
color (16.7 million colors) is recommended for optimal | |
display of DMC pictures. (DMC software can be used with | |
monitors and adapters capable of displaying fewer colors, | |
but the quality of pictures displayed on the monitor may not | |
be satisfactory.) | |
· An ASPI-compliant SCSI adapter and the appropriate | |
Windows 95 or Windows NT drivers. | |
· A TWAIN-compliant image-processing application, such as | |
Adobe Photoshop, is recommended for working with DMC | |
pictures. If you do not have such an application, you can use | |
DMC Direct (provided and installed as part of the DMC | |
software) to capture pictures and save them on your | |
computer’s hard drive.) | |
· Light microscope with a .63 or larger C-mount adapter | |
PowerMac or | · A PowerMac or PowerPC computer or compatible with a |
PowerPC systems | PowerPC processor and 20 megabytes (MB) of RAM. (32 |
MB is recommended.) | |
· Apple system software version 7.5 or later. | |
· An image-processing application, such as Adobe Photoshop, | |
compatible with Adobe Photoshop plug-in modules, is |
recommended for working with DMC pictures. If you do not have such an application, you can use DMC Direct (provided and installed as part of the DMC software) to transfer pictures from the camera and to control the camera from the computer.
· Light microscope with a .63 or larger C-mount adapter

Setting the SCSI ID
The DMC camera is a Small Computer Systems Interface (SCSI) device. You can connect up to seven SCSI devices to your computer, one to another in a SCSI chain.
The DMC camera’s SCSI ID is preset to 4 at the factory. You do not need to change this number unless another SCSI device in the chain is already using it. To determine whether 4 is already being used, check the user guides of the other devices or run a SCSI utility program.
WARNING: EACH SCSI DEVICE CONNECTED TO YOUR COMPUTER MUST HAVE ITS OWN UNIQUE ID NUMBER SO YOUR COMPUTER CAN DISTINGUISH IT FROM OTHER ATTACHED SCSI DEVICES. USING TWO OR MORE DEVICES WITH THE SAME ID NUMBER CAN CAUSE THEM TO MALFUNCTION. YOU CAN LOSE DATA AS A RESULT.
If the DMC is your only external SCSI device or no other device in the chain is using ID 4, skip the rest of this section and go on to Attaching the camera to your microscope on page 11. If you must change the camera’s SCSI ID, use the following steps:
1Make sure the camera power is off and the camera is disconnected from the computer. If the camera is on, use the power switch (a) to turn it off.
Pwrswit.ai
2Insert a small screwdriver into the slot of the SCSI ID selector on the camera and rotate the selector until the arrow points to the desired SCSI ID.
Scsiwit.ai
Note: Do not use 7 or 0, which are customarily reserved for the computer and for PowerMac/PowerPC hard drives. If possible, you should also avoid SCSI ID 3, which is often used for internal CD-ROM drives.
Attaching the camera to your microscope
Note: Attaching the DMC camera to your microscope requires a .63 or 1:1 c-mount adapter (not provided) compatible with your microscope. Do not use a .5 c-mount adapter, because it will produce image vignetting (dark corners). Refer to the microscope’s instruction manual or contact the microscope manufacturer for more information about c-mounts.
Caution: Before attaching a c-mount adapter or lens to the camera, verify that the threaded end of the adapter (a) does not exceed 0.195 inches (5mm). Longer c-mount adapters may damage the camera. (The drawing below is actual size to help you check the thread length of your c-mount adapter.)
= cmadap2.cdr
Use the following steps to attach the camera to your microscope:
1Screw the threaded side of the c-mount adapter (a) into the DMC camera (b).
Camtomic.ai
The mounting arrangement shown is typical. Yours may be different.
Important: Finger-tighten the adapter. Do not use any tools.
2Following instructions with your microscope or c-mount adapter, insert the c-mount adapter into the microscope (c).
3Assure that the camera image orientation matches the microscope eyepiece image by rotating the camera so the tripod mount (a) faces toward the bottom of the image.
