1. Magnification level
Use a keyboard or the control box to choose magnification
level. You should only see the sample, not the sample
drawer or sides of the light eliminator.
2. Live View
Use this button to toggle between live and snapshot,
In Live mode, the live camera image is active. In Still Image
mode, the latest snapshot will be shown.
3. Snapshot
Use this button to take a snapshot of the live image.
The snapshot will not be saved automatically. The
snapshot is used for toggling between “Live and Still Image
mode”.
4. White balance calibration (WBC)
Perform an automatic white balance adjustment in order to
get colors displayed correctly on screen.
NB! It is recommend to leave the microscope turned on for
30 minutes before performing the WBC.
Place the White balance calibration card in the allocated
slot on the Calibration card fixture and place them both on
top of the Sample drawer as shown below.
Then, insert the sample drawer with calibration card fixture
and calibration card into the sample drawer positioner and
press the white balance calibration button on the monitor
to start the calibration.
A white balance calibration is made each time the camera
is turned on to adjust to the given light conditions. A white
balance calibration must also be made every time the light
conditions change.
NB! If the Sample drawer with calibration card and
White balance calibration card fixture is not inserted
into the camera field of view when the unit is turned
on, the white balance will be incorrect and it will be
necessary to perform the white balance adjustment
process as described previously.
NB! Once the WBC has been performed, place the White
balance calibration card into its UV protection sleeve.
Storing it in the sleeve will prolong the life expectancy of
the White balance calibration card.
5. Save Image
This button provides the possibility to save the current view
with graphics. When activated, the information panel
will also appear from the saved image (see pt. 15).
When saving an image, an information window will appear
for a few seconds showing the file name and storage
location.
The image will be saved on the inserted USB memory stick.
If a USB memory stick is not attached, the image is saved
internally on the microscope, provided the share file mode
is turned on in General settings.
