Manual
The MultiSplit is calibrated and QC’d prior to delivery, however some alignment is required upon initial setup
using the calibration cubes provided (each containing a 50% mirror). This manual provides instructions for
mounting the unit on your microscope and basic alignment to project four identical images onto your camera
chip. A more detailed technical manual can also be provided upon request.
For the purposes of this manual, all text in
bold blue
is referenced on subsequent images.
1)
Mounting to your microscope
1.
The MultiSplit is supplied with four detached support feet, these should be screwed into the mounts on the
base of the unit prior to setup. A blue locking ring allows each support leg to be locked off at the correct
position.
2.
Screw your microscope c-mount onto the input section of the MultiSplit and attach to your microscope
frame.
3.
Adjust the support feet until the unit is level (a spirt level is recommended).
4.
Initial setup is completed without your imaging camera mounted on the unit, so for the time being, place
your camera safely to one side.
