Congratulations on choosing the ClearView One, an auto-focus desktop electronic magnification system developed by Optelec in the Netherlands. The ClearView One enables you to read, write, view photos, do work and much more.
The ClearView One magnifies and enhances text, objects and images in different colours, brightness and contrast. It is easy to operate and can be used at home, in school or at work.
The ClearView One has a unique ergonomic design that focuses on simplicity. The quality reading table allows users to move text and objects smoothly beneath the camera and it integrates the user-friendly control panel. The auto-focus feature has been incorporated as standard.
This manual will help you become familiar with the ClearView One features and operation.
Please read this manual thoroughly before setting up and using your ClearView One.

2. Safety and Care
Please read the instructions carefully before setting up your ClearView One. Keep this user manual for future reference.
Use the ClearView One indoors. Do not expose the ClearView One to extreme or rapid changes in temperature or humidity. Do not place the ClearView One near a radiator or heater, or where it may be exposed to direct sunlight. These conditions may damage the ClearView One
’s electronic or optical components.
Do not place the ClearView One on an unstable surface. It may fall, causing serious damage to the unit, or injury to the user.
The reading table and the monitor arm contain movable parts. Please be careful when adjusting the screen position, or when operating the reading table as to prevent fingers or any loose clothing from getting caught in the operating mechanism. If you have difficulty operating the ClearView One safely, please seek assistance or contact your
Optelec distributor.
Contact your Optelec distributor to service this device if necessary. Do not open your
ClearView One; this will void the warranty.
When moving the ClearView One to another location, remove the monitor from the base unit for safe and easy transportation. Carry the ClearView One base unit by using the two grips located on either side of the base unit table mid-way between the front and back of the unit at table level.
Always turn the power off when the ClearView One is not in use.

4. Operation
When using the ClearView One, place your hands on the wrist support at the front of the table for easier access to the control buttons, and for steady table movement.
Operation
– Switching ON / OFF
To power the system, press the ON / OFF button that is located right above the magnification button on the reading table. The ClearView One will start up in the same viewing mode as when it was powered off.
It takes about 10 seconds for the camera unit to initialize before it displays an image.
Within about 1 minute, the ClearView One system’s light source will achieve full brightness, providing optimal image quality.
Please note that a non-Optelec supplied monitor may have additional controls and need to be switched on and off separately.
Adjusting the magnification
Locate the zoom button in the centre of the table, and turn it clockwise to increase the magnification, and counter-clockwise to decrease it.
Choosing viewing modes
Pressing this button will cycle you through 3 different viewing modes:
1- Photo mode full colour;
2- Reading mode: This mode enhances the foreground / background contrast.
Pictures and text will be displayed in high contrast black and white;
3- Reverse reading mode: This mode reverses the chosen background and foreground colour combinations of the reading mode.
English Page 6
Optelec ClearView One
Semi-colours
Press the viewing mode and auto-focus buttons simultaneously in reading mode or reverse reading mode to add different foreground and background colour combinations. You can cycle through 8 different colour combinations. You may choose to display text in a choice of colour combinations when additional contrast is needed, or when a different colour combination provides increased visibility.
Press these two buttons simultaneously in photo mode to toggle between the full colour and the grey scale modes.
Object lighting ON /OFF
Pressing this button for four seconds turns off the object lighting. You can choose this option to make it easier to read glossy articles such as magazines and photos. Pressing the button once will advance the viewing mode by one position and will turn the lights back on; or pressing the button for four seconds will turn the object lighting back to the same viewing mode.
Auto-focus lock for writing
The ClearView One features an automatic focus system that produces a sharp onscreen image at any time. When switching the ClearView One on, the system will start up in the auto-focus mode. Pressing the auto-focus lock button stops the ClearView One from continuously focusing on the object being viewed and activates a red LED light. This can be useful for tasks, such as writing, painting or crafts. The activated red LED light shows a red spotlight on the object in the centre of the reading table which serves to indicate the centre of the onscreen image. To assist with writing, hold a pen near the red spotlight on the reading table so that it appears on the screen.
Locking the reading table
Lift the red lever located at the front of the table to lock the table in a stable position. This is very useful when writing, painting and doing hobbies and crafts.
Unlock the table by simply lifting the lever once again.
Please note: When the ClearView One power is off, the brake will automatically lock into position. When the ClearView One is switched on, the brake will unlock. Make sure to push the reading table backwards to its home position prior to turning off.
5. Adjusting the monitor
The Monitor is height adjustable. To place the monitor in your preferred position, firmly grip the flat panel on both sides by the surrounding frame, and move it up or down as required.
