3. Place an object of known dimensions (a stage micrometer
is supplied with each system for this purpose) in the field of
view.
Ensure that the objective selected in RI Viewer matches
that being used on the microscope.
4.
The stage micrometer supplied measures 100µm between
the longer lines. For best accuracy, position each end point
of the line at exactly the same relative position on the
scale, for example at the right hand edge of each vertical
line.
5. Drag the rulers to the point where the stage micrometer
is going to be measured from and use the fine adjustment
up and down until the ruler scale matches the stage
micrometer.
