Settings for multiple track configurations in Channel Mode
Multiple track
set-ups for sequential scanning can be defined as one configuration (
Channel Mode
Configuration
), to be stored under any name, reloaded or deleted.
The maximum of four tracks with up to eight channels can be defined simultaneously and then scanned
one after the other. Each track is a separate unit and can be configured independently from the other
tracks with regard to channels, Acousto-Optical Tunable Filters (AOTF), emission filters and dichroic beam
splitters.
The following functions are available in the
List of
Tracks
panel in the
Imaging Setup Tool
(Fig. 17,
Fig. 18 and Fig. 19).

Line
Tracks are switched during scanning line-by-line. The following settings can be changed
between tracks: Laser line, laser intensity and channels.

Tracks are switched during scanning frame-by-frame. The following settings can be
changed between tracks: Laser line and intensity, all filters and beam splitters, the
channels incl. settings for gain and offset and the pinhole position and diameter.
Frame Fast
The scanning procedure can be made faster. Only the laser line intensity and the
Amplifier

are switched, but no other hardware components. The tracks are all
matched to the current track with regard to emission filter, dichroic beam splitter,
setting of Detector Gain, pinhole position and diameter. When the
Line
button is
selected, the same rules apply as for
Frame Fast
.
