CALIBRATION
– (*Optional – not necessary to use your microscope*)
To prepare for the calibration process, please make sure you have the calibration slide. The calibration slide
has four individual dark round circles. Each dark round circle corresponds with each objective on your
microscope.
The 1.5mm dot (150um
– microns) with the 4X objective.
The 0.6mm (600um
– microns) with the 10X objective.
The 0.15mm (150um
– microns) with the 40x objective.
The 0.07mm (70um
– microns) with the 100X objective.
To begin the calibration process, place the calibration on the stage.
1. First place your calibration slide on the stage, switch to the 4X objective, and move the slide over to the
1.5mm dot.
2. With the dot centered on the tablet screen, select the calibration button, located on the bottom right hand
side of the screen. Select Calibrate the Image.
3. Make the captured image is clean and round. Then click the Calibration button again.
4. You should have a bright green circle on the screen.
5. This time the calibration settings window will open.
6. In the objective magnification window select the objective you captured the dot with. In this case the 4X
objective.
7. In the diameter window select the diameter of the dot you captured. In this case the 150um. Then click
OK.
8. The last window that will open is the Save Calibration window. Since you capture this image with the 4X
objective, it is best to enter this on this line.
9. The objective line should default to the objective you are calibrating. In this case it should say 4X.
10. The X and Y numbers on the next two lines should be near identical. Look at the first three numbers. As
long as they are the same within one or two digits, you have a good calibration.
Click Ok and you are done.
TRANSFERING IMAGES TO YOUR COMPUTER
By default all your images are saved to the Micro SD card included with your M10T-BTW series microscope.
This card is provided as a courtesy. If it is missing or lost, you will need to purchase a replacement. It is highly
recommend that you purchase a Micro SD to Standard SD card adapter.
This is simplest and easiest way to transfer images to your computer. Images are automatically captured as
Jpeg images. If your computer/laptop does not come with an SD card slot, a SD card reader will need to be
purchased as well. *Please note: 32GB Max*
