Introduction
The INSPEX II (Fig 1.) is a full HD (1080p) digital microscope inspection
system that operates without a PC. The INSPEX II platform has a powerful
image processing and control engine that delivers superb full live video
image quality at 50/60 frames per second. This enables the system to be
utilized as a solution in a broad range of quality control, testing, assembly,
inspection and documentation tasks. It is ideal for production and quality
control environments. The INSPEX II provides efficiency, control and
traceability of inspection.
The INSPEX II platform has the following key features and
benefits.
AshCal™ Auto-Calibration:
•The AshCal™auto-calibration feature removes the need for time-consuming zoom change
re-calibrations. Its unique ability to stay in calibration over the entire zoom range is one of
the many features that differentiate the INSPEX II from other digital inspection systems.
Image Capture:
•Image stamping with time, date, user details and magnification level allows for
traceability of inspection.
•Capture annotation and measurement values on an image.
Auto-Focus:
•The INSPEX II features a one-click auto-focus on-screen indicator. This allows the user to
rapidly change between auto-focus and manual-focus as required.
Internal Storage:
•16GB for storage of images or overlay files for off-network saving.
Save & Recall Inspection Settings:
•Custom settings such as brightness, exposure and magnification can be saved and easily
recalled enabling standardisation of inspection conditions.
User Privileges:
•Access to functionality can be restricted to enable operational control and traceability.

GUI:
•The INSPEX II GUI (Graphical User Interface) is a custom designed, mouse-controlled
interface, delivering intuitive and efficient operation and control of the full application suite.
Camera control functions:
•Auto and manual focus, exposure, gain, brightness, and white balance customization ensure
ultra-sharp, high contrast imaging.
Illumination Options:
•INSPEX II offers several quick release, cable free, interchangeable illumination options. With
illumination intensity control and quadrant control, the user can ensure they have shadow-
free illumination and glare reduction.

1. HDMI connector to TV/Monitor
2. 2 x USB Ports
3. Ethernet Connection for Networking
4. DC Power Jack to Power Supply
5. 3 x Auxiliary Communications Ports
6. Grounding Connection (for grounding cable supplied)
Side:
7. 2 x USB Ports (Recommended to keep mouse dongle in side USB, keyboard dongle can go in
a rear USB port)
8. Mini USB (PC) Connection
Initial Start-up:
Setting the Correct Focal Point
Before using the INSPEX II the user must set the focal point of the lens first to suit the height of the
object.
1. Power up the unit.
2. Place the unit in Overview Mode by selecting the Overview tab in the menu bar.
3. Move the object until the desired viewing area is under the crosshair of the screen.
4. Exit Overview mode by again selecting the Overview tab in the menu bar.
5. Zoom to full magnification.
6. Manually adjust the height of the INSPEX II up or down on the stand via focus block
adjustment until the object is in focus. You have now achieved your optimal focal point.
7. When the focal plane is set you can only measure points at that plane. If the user wishes to
view a different object with a different height, then the focal point will have to be set again.
8. To recall an overlay file, you must also ensure the focal plane is set prior to opening the
overlay file.
