Did you know that the document cameras are collapsable? This ensures they do not block students' views of the instructor.

To collapse the document camera, follow the directions below.

1) Assuming the document camera is in its expanded form, locate the ring near the middle of the shaft supporting the light and camera.

This is a close-up shot of the ring.

2) Using a finger inserted in the ring, gently, but firmly pull the document camera supporting shaft toward you. It is on springs and will slowly collapse into position. ***Please do not tug on the ring as the document camera will collapse too quickly and could be damaged.***

3) To raise the document camera from its collapsed position, reverse the procedure.
