2TV tube (Top Port/Back Port) and motorized camera path
deflection are installed at the Side Port.
−
Three mirrors (deflection plane, eyepieces, Top Port/Back Port)
are active.
−
2TV tube (Top Port / Back Port) and motorized camera path
deflection are installed at the Side Port.
−
Two mirrors (deflection plane, eyepiece, Top Port) and a
dichroic beam splitter are active at the Back Port.
−
The active light paths are displayed in yellow, inactive light
paths appear in extra light gray (line width: 1 pixel).
−
The line width for the active light paths depends on the
amount of light transmitted in each case:
−
100 %
= 4 pixels
−
50 %
= 3 pixels
−
25 – 15 % = 2 pixels
−
<15 %
= 1 pixel
−
If a dichroic beam splitter is used, the light path to the top
port is shown in red, while the deflected one appears in
green. The line width is reduced by one pixel each time.
