XYZ page
The
Microscope/XYZ
page contains two tabs:
Position
and
Measure
.
The availability of the
XYZ
page
depends on the microscope stage
used:
−
Motorized stages (only CAN bus
stages that are directly connected
to stands .M2 / .M2p / .M2m or
.Z2 / .Z2m):
Settings for XY coordinates and Z
focusing drive settings possible
−
Manual stage:
Settings for Z focusing drive only
possible (no XY controls),
Measure
tab not accessible
−
Manual stage / manual Z focusing
drive:
XYZ
page is not accessible
During microscope initialization, the
system detects whether a stage is
installed. Thus, the stage can only be
changed with the microscope switched
off.
(1)

The control area under the
Position
tab is
subdivided into three functional blocks.
If no motorized stage is used, the

controls (see (2) Measure) below.
Current position display / Set Zero
Displays the current positions of Z, X and Y in
millimeters (mm).
If no motorized Z focusing drive is
installed, the Z position is not
accessible.
