Leica M205 FA user manual Graticules, Use with the Leica AX carrier

Graticules

Use

Leica graticules make length measurements and counting easier, particularly for work- stations that are not equipped with a digital camera and LAS software.

The Leica graticules for length measurements and numbering are fitted in mounts and are inserted into the eyepieces.

1. Screw the insert off of the eyepiece.

2.Clamp the graticule on the insert, applying moderate pressure. Ensure that the grati- cule fits tightly.

3.Screw the insert and graticule firmly into place and replace the eyepiece in the tube.

4.You can now align the graticule by rotating the eyepiece in the tube and then tighten- ing it using the clamping screw.

Use with the Leica AX carrier

If possible, measure with the micro- scope carrier AX in vertical position. The measurements are more accurate without the

convergence angle in the stereoscopic image.
