All of the software required to operate the MegaCam 810, OptiChemi 610 and BioChemi 510
cameras, as well as their respective motorized lens controllers (if equipped), is embedded within
VisionWorksLS. Therefore, once VisionWorksLS has been installed, plug in the camera and lens
controller. No additional drivers or software are required.
