3.3.3
Setting the Angle of the Pipette/Headstage Holder
To change the angle of the holder, first loosen the set screw at the top of the rotary dovetail
bracket, rotate the holder to the desired angle, and then retighten the set screw.
Measure the angle of the holder. (Tip: Many smart phones have an app with a level that can
assist the user.)
3.3.4
Operating the Virtual Z Axis
The TRIO MP-235 consists of three physical axes, X, Y and D. A cosine function utilizing X
and D axes and the angle of the holder has been implemented to create a virtual Z-axis. Best
results are obtained when using it between 10° and 90°.
Zero (0°) is set with the diagonal being parallel to the table and 90° is set with the diagonal
being perpendicular to the table.
To set the angle measured above, on the ROE hold PULSE down for 3 seconds. The screen
will be red until the display indicates in green: “Select the angle in use (0-90)”.
Use the D dial on the ROE to set the value of the angle. Once this value is dialed in, do not
touch the ROE knob for 8-10 sec. The virtual D angle will now be set.
3.3.5
Moving to the Home Position (HOME)
Figure 3-5. Moving to Home position (screen is amber while moving)
If the Home position has not yet been defined and saved, the Home position values for all
axes will default to 1,000 microns, as shown in the following figure.
Figure 3-6. Factory default Home position
If the Home position has been previously defined (saved), pressing HOME will make a move
to the defined home position (see example in the following figure).
Figure 3-7. Example Home position defined and saved
To move to the Home position, press HOME. If the current position before pressing HOME is
greater than the Home position, the movement will be as follows:
NOTE: Movement to the Home position works only if X coordinates of the HOME position
are less than the WORK position.

Movement begins by retracting the D axis (at the angle currently set) away from the
sample.
