Using the Welch Allyn Image Capture System
When entering a New Session, the Welch Allyn Image Capture System always begins in Image
Capture Mode. Use the Video Colposcope as usual. The system always displays the current
Patient ID and the Date on the title bar. Use the Welch Allyn Image Capture System to freeze or
capture images taken with the Video Colposcope.
Freezing an Image
To display a frame of the current video stream on the screen, click the Freeze button. To return
to Video Mode, click the Video button.
Capturing an Image
To save a frame of the current video stream, click the Capture button. All captured images are
placed in thumbnail views on the right of the computer screen and saved to the session folder.
Saving Images
Your computer saves all images on the hard drive when you click the Capture button. Welch
Allyn recommends that you schedule regular back ups of the hard drive to avoid loss of images
and information due to a system failure.

would like to review. The computer will change from Image Capture Mode to Image Display
