8)Press to return to the previous menu. Any calibration values will be erased unless they have been saved.

NOTE: Do not save the calibration value when “E” is checked in the calibration screen. Otherwise, an incorrect calibration value will be saved.

< When using the magnification of the objective and relay lenses >

1)

Select a number in which you want to save the calibration value from

 

s1

through

s7

.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Drag the mouse pointer over one of numbers

s1

through

s7

, and the calibration

 

information for that number will be displayed in the Info area for your confirmation.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE: If the microscope connected to your system is the Nikon 80i/90i microscope

 

 

with motorized or intelligent nosepiece, note that each calibration value call

 

 

number is linked to the hole number of the nosepiece. This means you

 

 

cannot change calibration values by selecting

 

 

through

 

 

. The value

 

 

s1

 

s7

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

is selected automatically from

s1

through

 

s7

 

based on the hole

 

 

number of the nosepiece you are currently using.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2)

Press

Calib.

to bring up the calibration screen shown below.

 

 

 

 

 

 

3Click the numeric value input box to display the numeric keypad. Use the keypad to enter the magnification of the objective.

4Click the numeric value input box to display the numeric keypad. Use the keypad to enter the magnification of the relay lens.

5)If you want to attach information to the calibration value you've created, click the Info input box and enter text for the information you want to attach. This information will prove helpful because you can confirm Info when you call up the calibration value at a later time.

6)

Check the Set number to confirm that the calibration number is correct, then click

Save

 

 

 

 

 

to save it.

Save

is disabled if no value is entered.

7)Press to return to the previous menu. Any calibration values not saved are deleted. NOTE:

*If the microscope connected to your system is the Nikon 80i/90i microscope with motorized or intelligent nosepiece and the calibration method you selected is "using the magnification of the objective and relay lenses," you do not need to enter the magnification of the objective. If the camera head is connected to the rear port of the DIH, you do not need to enter the magnification of the relay lens. If you calibrated with one objective, other connected objectives will be also calibrated automatically with their magnifications being converted.

*If you selected the "using the magnification of the objective and relay lenses" calibration method, keep in mind that the calibration value may incorporate a certain amount of error attributable to optical errors of the objective. With the Nikon 80i/90i microscope connected, errors may range up to 10%.
