4.2) Split mode: image alignment
Once the calibration cube is in place, two identical images will be visible on a live camera image.
It’s best practice to setup the unit with the reflected (shorter) wavelength channel on the right and
the transmitted (longer) wavelength channel on the left:
Firstly, identify each channel - the reflected image can be moved vertically and horizontally using
the provided 1.5mm allen key on the
H&V controls
on the magnetic
door cover
.
Once you are aware which channel is which, turn your attention to the transmitted image and
position this image on the left-hand side first.
1. Turn the
split control
clockwise to position the transmitted image horizontally close to the
edge of the camera sensor.
2. Adjust the
Transmitted V control
(using the 1.5mm allen key provided) to optimise the vertical
position of this (red) image.
