A lite version of the software is available for Mac and Linux, providing basic functionality for capturing photos and videos, along with color-correction and measurement tools. Please refer to the AmScope website for the latest software downloads for these operating systems.

For Android-enheter:

An OTG micro-USB or USB-C adapter (not provided) can be used to connect the microscope to OTG-compatible smartphones and tablets. This allows for a fully-portable digital-microscopy system. Compatible third-party applications may be required.
