Introduction
The camera on this table is a simple device and has no moving parts. If the camera must be removed for servicing, the process to do so is fairly simple and does not involve de-soldering or soldering. Care must be taken, however, because the parts being handled are very small and made of plastic so are easy to break. Be patient, move slowly, do not apply large amounts of force when removing parts.
