function.
Search for the sharpest focus on the current field of view automatically by clicking
Auto
focus
button.
To define focus limits, select
Limit the range
. Set the upper and lower limits by selecting the
desired value in the selection boxes. By using set
± Range
, the
Lower limit
value is set to -32 of the
current focus value and the
Upper limit
value is set to +32 of the current focus value. This is useful
if
Auto Focus
does not find the focus on the specimen, but on the coverslip. Also, this makes the
focusing sequence faster.
For manual focusing define the manual focus step size by adjusting the
Step size
slider and use
the two arrow buttons to focus manually. This is useful when you are interested in an area that
remained blurry with
Auto Focus
(for example, the specimen is thicker in that area). This does not
influence the way slides are digitized in Auto focus mode.
