2.3.6.10Extension for Dual Screen Mode

When the screen mode is Dual, the control panel is extended as follows.

Fig. 2.3-23 Control Panel (Dual screen mode)

(1)Right-and-left dual control

The Run/Freeze, Capture, Recording, and detector selection control buttons are available in right-left configurations. By using these buttons, you can control right and left actions independently.

(2)Signal A/B selection

ABCC, brightness and contrast knobs on the manual operation panel are effective for the signal selected here.

(Brightness and contrast adjustment with mouse operation works on A and B images separately.)

(3)Signal Mixing

Different signals can be assigned to right and left, and the signals assigned to right and left can be mixed and displayed.

When the box is checked, the system displays an image, produced by mixing the two selected signals, on the right screen.

•Brightness and contrast adjustments using the mouse on the screen operate not on the results of mixing, but on the image signal that is selected in the Signal Selection unit.

•Unchecking the box turns off the signal mixing option.

(4)Color Mixing

When different types of signals are assigned to the right and left screens, this function assigns different colors (R/G/B) to the two signals to produce a color-mixed image. The image on the right is displayed in color. First, set the dual mode, assign different signals to right and left, and then make observations. Check the Color Mixing box. Click the colors to be assigned to A (left) and B (right) to assign colors to the signals. If a color is not to be assigned, click Off. Unchecking the Color Mixing box resets the display to the normal monochrome mode. Although mixed color images cannot be photographed, they can be saved. Selecting Screen B and saving it records the image as a color image.
