Expand the
Filters
tool to define the filters present in
the Reflector Turret for Laser Blocking Filters as well as
in the Reflector Turret for Emission Selection for your
Lightsheet Z.1 system as will be shown in the ZEN
software.
Laser blocking filters are easily exchangeable push and
click filter cubes. The beam splitters cannot be
exchanged, but the associated emission filters can be
exchanged.
On the top is a row of tabs for every filter position. To
reach the right most tab, press the white arrow on
the right side of the row. If you press the white arrow
on the right side that points downwards, a list of all
possible tabs are displayed. Here you can chose which
filters to edit.
In each tab you find a list of positions that relate to
the positions in the corresponding reflector turret.
The
Laser Blocking Filter
tab represents the
Reflector Turret for Laser Blocking Filters (Fig. 261).
These are push & click filters which can be easily
exchanged.
The
Beam Splitter
,
Emission Filter 1
, and
Emission
Filter 2
tabs (Fig. 262) describe the filters of the
Turret for Emission Selection. Each row of these tabs
represents one position in the turret, and all three
together represent one filter combination. Only the
Emission Filter 1
(in front of Cam1) and the
Emission Filter 2
(in front of Cam2) can be
exchanged by the user (see CHAPTER 1 HARDWARE).
To update the filter information in the software, press
on the
filter symbol
you would like to edit. This will
open a box listing the
Recent
used filters in the upper
part (Fig. 263). In the lower part are listed all available
Filters
which can be searched by entering the full or
part of the name into the
Search
field. Simply clicking
on the Filter within the list will enter its name into the
software interface.
The following abbreviations are used:
LBF: Laser blocking filter
SBS: Secondary beam splitter
BP:
