MagniLink PCViewer Standalone

Software

Below you can download the software MagniLink PCViewer that enalbles your MagniLink Video Magnifier to operate with your PC.

If you don´t have a licensed MagniLink camera the words “Unvalid license” will be present at the screen. After a few minutes the picture will disappear. If you want to test a few more minutes you can restart the camera again.

Choose either the “Full version” for a complete software, including almost all available languages (note that the large file size can cause significant download time) or the “No language version” (best choice for everyone not using a text-to-speech-model).

Users with a Text-to-speech-model can complete the “No language version” with the languages in use, notice that then the OCR Package must be installed.

If you use Google Chrome as a browser and have trouble downloading the software, right-click and choose “Open in new tab” or try another browser.
