I was forced to use the CamApp application for live microscope inspection. The "Cooling Tech" aka "Measurement" application haven't recognized the USB microscope at all (at least under Win 7 64 bit). This microscope came with two programs, one called "CamApp" and one called "Cooling Tech" (the "Measurement" program from the menu). I have also installed the "Measurement" program.
#Cooling tech digital microscope software 64 Bit
The CD has a nice auto-run menu : Microscope USB Installation CDĭrivers worked well under Windows 7 64 bit version. Once done this modification i was able to use a classic "third hand" tool in order to place the PCB board underneath the microscope : Microscope & Third hand Some photos are posted below : USB Microscope Arm modification USB Microscope Arm modification different angle I was aware about that so i made a pretty simple modification. The given stand is without doubt an inspection only stand since the maximum distance between the microscope and the PCB can be few millimeters.
#Cooling tech digital microscope software drivers
It came with a mini CD with the drivers a little stand, a calibration rule, a plastic cover for the lens and the microscope itself. I bought this 800X microscope from e-bay and i must say that i was impatient to see its capabilities. Two main things bothered me : how responsive would be on a fast desktop computer and if the distance between the microscope and the PCB board would be enough for soldering elaboration. I have seen the excellent review of Todd Harrison which i highly recommend to watch before buying this gadget. I was very skeptical before buying this gadget.Įveryone seems to use it for general inspection and not as a real time soldering equipment.
A USB microscope can be useful for electronics or not ?
