Cleaning the Contacts

To clean the optics and camera contacts, do the following:

  1. Unplug your IASLab device from your PC.
  2. Remove the optics module from the camera.
  3. Inspect the contacts for damage. Check the gold-plated contacts on the bottom of the camera and the top of the optics module.
    • NOTE:  If the contacts are damaged, the unit will have to be returned to QEA for service. Please contact support@QEA.com for instructions.
  1. Clean the contacts on the camera and optics module using a cotton swab moistened with Isopropyl alcohol.
  2. Allow the alcohol to dry before proceeding with Step 6.
  3. Reattach the optics module.
  4. Plug the device back into your PC and start the software.
  5. Verify that the software is able to view a live image.

If your configuration includes more than one optics module:

  1. Clean the contacts on the remaining optics modules as in Steps 4 and 5 above.
  2. Install each optics module in turn, and verify that the software is able to view a live image.
