Camera measurements
aCOLyte3 is fully calibrated in the factory and in normal circumstances will require no further
calibration after delivery. However, in exceptional circumstances you may need to recalibrate
the camera measurements, which enable the instrument to measure distances on the image
accurately.
To recalibrate the camera measurements:
1. Insert an object of known size into aCOLyte3 – see Loading plates into the instrument ,
page 8.
2. Press the aCOLyte3 button at the top left-hand corner of the window to display the
aCOLyte3 menu:
3. Choose Calibrate Camera Measurements from the Settings ® Calibration submenu to
display the Calibrate Camera for Measurements dialog box.
This dialog box is also displayed when you calibrate an imported image, and is used in
exactly the same way – see
Calibrating the image , page 12, for detailed instructions.
