OPERATION 

Controller EMS 3 is indispensable for using the mechanical / measuring stage S mot. with SYCOP 3. 
The stage function is controlled by the SYCOP 3 system control panel. See separate SYCOP 3 operating 

manual  

 

for operation under: 

 

Home\Microscope\Function\XYZ Position

 or 

 

Home\Microscope\Function\XYZ Distance

 

 

for hardware settings under: 

 

Home\Microscope\Memory\Hardware Setting

 

 

 

The 

Invert Direction

  function can be used to reverse the direction of stage travel. See 

SYCOP 3 operating manual under:   

 

Home\Setup\Mode\Stage

 

The 

Fast XY

  function can be used for rapid stage movements over longer distances. To do 

this, assign the 

Fast XY

  function to a button (see SYCOP 3 under:  

Home\Setup\Key 

Settings\Buttons

) For quick positioning hold this button pressed while moving the joystick 

accordingly. 

 

If SYCOP 3 is not available on the microscope system, the mobile coaxial drive XY CAN can be 
optionally used for external control of the stage (see Section 4.2). 

 
The 

Parcentricity Manager

  can be activated on the SYCOP 3 for SteREO Discovery.V20 / V12 

microscope systems with nosepiece S, coax 3x2 cod.  
The Parcentricity Manager ensures that when the nosepiece is switched between the 

Stereo Mode (3D)

 

and 

Axial Mode (2D) 

positions the object detail being observed remains in the center of the image. The 

necessary compensatory movement of the object is performed automatically by the installed mechanical / 

measuring stage S mot. CAN.  

Opening menus: 

 

Home\Setup\Mode\Stage

 

 

The function is activated / deactivated by 
pressing the 

Compensate 2D/3D Changes

 

button.  

 

The LED lights up blue when the function is 
activated.  

 

 

The stage manager function is 
automatically activated when using the 

EMS 3. This ensures constant speed of 
movement of object details in the 

visual field.
