Part A Installation and Part B Operating instructions are included as Adobe PDF file
on the CyberView X –MS-CD. The file will be installed with the driver and will be
available on the computer after the installation without the CD.
Note:
The CyberView X software and the TWAIN plug-in are being developed
permanently. It is recommended to regularly check the home pages of
the manufacturers for driver updates.
The driver updates can be stored without previously installing the
software.
It is recommended to download the latest software version on the
Internet so that it can be used for the initial installation.

Do not modify the scanner
Inside the housing, there are energized parts. Do not open the housing.
There is the risk of fire or electrical shock. Have any repair work carried
out by authorized dealers.
Do not touch parts inside the scanner or of the power adapter
In case the scanner or the power adapter is damaged (e.g. when falling
down) do no longer use the scanner or power adapter. There is the
danger of suffering an electrical shock. Disconnect the power cord from
the power outlet and contact the manufacturer's after-sales service.
In case of unusual incidents, switch of the scanner
immediately and disconnect from the power outlet
If the scanner or the power adapter emits unusual sounds or odors or if
smoke escapes, switch of the scanner immediately and disconnect it from
the power outlet.

Have the manufacturer's after-sales service repair thescanner. Do not try
to repair it yourself -you will expose yourself to severe risk.
Make sure that no objects enter the housing
Do not place objects on top of the scanner housing (by no means
containers filled with liquids).
Objects or liquids entering the scanner result in the risk of fire or electrical
shock. In addition, the scanner may be damaged.
Do not operate the scanner near flammable gas or when dust
generates
The non-compliance with this precautionary measure results in the risk of

Do not touch the power cord during periods of lightning
activity
Do not operate the scanner during periods of lightning activity. You might
suffer an electrical shock via the electrical cords. The scanner may also
be damaged. Disconnect the scanner from the power outlet during
electrical storms.
Ensure the correct power connection
The scanner must be operated with a power connection of 50/60 Hz and
100 to 240 V. Use only power cords which are approved for these values
and which meet the safety regulations of your country.
Observe the necessary safety regulations when using the
power cord
Make sure the power cord is not damaged. Do not make any modifications
to the power cord. When heavy objects are placed on the cord, if the cord
is subject to heat or open fire or if it is excessively stretched or twisted,
there is the risk of fire or electrical shock.
If the power cord insulation is damaged or if wires are blank contact the
manufacturer's after-sales service immediately. Do not use damaged
power cords, there is the risk offire or electrical shock.
Do not touch the power cord with wet or damp hands. The non-
compliance with this precautionary measure results in the risk of an
electrical shock.
Do not play the CD-ROMs with an audio CD player
The CD-ROMs supplied with the scanner shall not be played with an
audio CD player. Playing a CD-ROM with an audio CD player may
damage the hi-fi system and produce sounds which can seriously damage
the hearing (or even result in a complete loss of hearing).
Operating ambient temperature range
+50º to +104ºF (+10º to +40ºC)
Do not turn on the scanner unless it is within this range.
If the scanner has been stored or transported outside of this range, allow it
to return to within this range before turning it on.

Description of CyberView X –MS
The CyberView X software (CVX) can be used in two different ways:
1. as independent program
2. as TWAIN driver directly from other programs.
The user interface and the functioning of the program differ only slightly. With the
TWAIN driver, the Scan menu offers options where you can define to transfer the
scanned data to the calling program or directly to the hard disk. When CVX is started
as independent program, the data can be stored to the hard disk only (see 1.1.1
Scanning).
The CyberView X user interface consists of four areas:
1. the main window with the menu bar to select the scan commands and
to control the scanner
2. the preview window
3. the window with the preference for the active image
4. the window with the thumbnail panel to select the active image and the
images to be scanned

1.1.1 Scan
Prescan:
-Prescan Current Frame
-Prescan…
In contrast to the Prescan Current Frame option where a single slide is scanned,
you can use the Prescan… option to enter a range. Individual ranges are specified
using a hyphen (–), several ranges or single slides are separated by a comma.
Example: 1-5,10,12,20-25.
Scan:
-Scan Current Frame
-Scan Selected Films
-Multi-Scan …
-Scan Current Frame to File …
-Scan Selected Filmsto File …
-Multi-Scan to File …
The first three menu items of the Scan sub-menu are displayed only when CVX is
started as TWAIN driver. In contrast to the other menu items, the corresponding
scan is transferred to the program where CVX was started. WhenCVX is used
independently, the scan(s) are saved as files to the hard disk.
The differences of the menu items are as follows:
-Scan Current Frame: The slide currently in the scanner will be scanned.
-Scan Selected Films: This option is only available after a pre-scan. The images
of the pre-scans can be selected in the Thumbnail Panel. Please refer to the
corresponding section for a detailed description.
-Multi-Scan…: When you select this menu item, you are prompted to enter the

number of scans you wantto perform. The scans are performed starting from the
current position of the magazine.
When you select Scan ... to File…, you are prompted to enter the storage location,
the base file name, the file type and the quality (JPEG) of the image(s).
-Enter the desired path or click on the Browse... button to select a path.
-Enter the name of the first image in the Base File Name field.
-Select the file type.
-If the image is stored as JPG file select the quality of the image in the JPEG
Quality field.
The images are numbered automatically, where the first three digits correspond to
the numbering of the scan, the next two digits define the selection frame of the
scan (see preview window section).
These two digits may be omitted.

All modifications of the current preview windows are discarded and the image is
displayed in its original state in the preview window.

This section is divided into three 3 sub-windows:
1.1.1.1.Scan Setting
You can define the resolution, the color depth and the scan mode for the pre-
scans and the scans.
Note for the color depth: Please note that various programs cannot work with a 16
bit color depth.
Note for the scan mode: When using the Quality option, the scan will be slower
resulting in less noisy scans.
1.1.1.2.Advanced Setting
You can set the CVX program to perform an automatic exposure correction (Auto
Exposure) and/or an automatic gamma correction (Auto Gamma).

1.1.1.3. Default Scanning Area
CVX recognizes three different scan formats.
You can specify the slide sizes to be used automatically for the pre-scans and a
scan offset to position the actual slide section.
Please note that the x/y values for the offset must correspond to the coordinate
values as required by Adobe Photoshop.
+x and +y moves the slide to the right/down.
-Exit
The CVX user interface is closed. The system returns to the calling program if
applicable.
