The photograph shows the parts required for assembly of the BioChemi 500 and OptiChemi 610
camera kits with the automated lens on the iBox Scientia Imaging System. The BioChemi 500 and
OptiChemi 610 cameras will have a different appearance but will be installed in the same manner.
Note: The image above shows the 50mm f/1.2 lens (6). Another lens and/or lens controller may be
shipped with the system.
1. Attach the camera bracket (4) to the base mount with the brass thumb nuts (5).
2. If not already removed, take the lens cap off the lens. Do not unscrew the lens cap, as it will simply
pull straight off.
3. Place the camera/lens assembly in the hole in the base mount. Then, use the black thumb screw
(5) to secure the camera in place, attaching it through the hole at the top of the bracket (4).
Note: When looking at the darkroom from the front, the BioChemi 500 attaches to the bracket with the
Black Thumb Screw at the front of the system facing the user. The USB and power cables will extend
from the left of the darkroom.
The OptiChemi 610 cameras attach to the bracket with the Black Thumb Screw at the right of the
