to the contrary). However, I have not done so personally. My main concern is
actually physical wear on the connector due to constantly
plugging/unplugging it. Our microscope is in pretty frequent use, so we
leave the iXon on more or less constantly. When it will not be used for more
than a day or so, we usually shut down the PC (and therefore the camera).
