About 

Use the document camera to show documents, textbooks, artwork, or objects on a work surface in real time to remote viewers connected to your class through Zoom. 

Getting Started

The document camera consists of:  

• a weighted base on which the device controls are located 

• a jointed arm that lets you position the camera at various heights and angles 

• an 8MP camera at the end of the jointed arm that swivels 

Plug it in

The document camera is connected to your laptop via USB. Plug the narrow end of the USB type-C cable into port labeled USB / Power on the back of the weighted stand and the wide end of the cable into your computer’s USB (Type-A) port. 

Turn it on

Find the document camera’s power switch near the bottom of the front of the weighted stand. Slide the switch down. The LED indicator should glow green.
