Brightness adjustment knobs (top) and height adjustment knobs (bottom)
Knurled rotary control for zoom adjustment
4.1.3 Getting Started
Unpack the two boxes which contain the microscope unit and the XGA monitor. Place the microscope unit and XGA monitor on a desktop or workbench. Provide a minimum width of 75 cm (30”) for the video monitor and microscope unit, and a minimum depth of 45 cm (18”). Additional work space to place parts and paperwork is recommended. Orient the monitor so that it does not face a bright light source, which would cause glare. A clean and dust-free environment is recommended to maintain cleanliness of the zoom mechanism and optical surfaces. Connect the microscope unit and XGA monitor via the supplied VGA cable. Plug the microscope unit and XGA monitor into an AC power outlet, and turn on both units. A highly magnified image of an object placed on the base will appear on the monitor screen. Set focus by raising and lowering the optical head. The object to be viewed will be in best focus at a specific height. Use the two large inner knobs on the side of the Z-column for coarse height adjustment, then use the two smaller outer knobs for fine height adjustment. Focusing is most sensitive at the highest magnification. Set top and bottom illumination using the two small knobs above the height adjustment knobs. The best illumination is where image detail is not lost in overly dark areas and is not washed out in overly bright areas. Set magnification by turning the knurled adjustment in front of the zoom optics. With parfocal zoom optics as used by KineMic, the image will stay in focus regardless of magnification. You may wish to set focus at highest magnification, then reduce magnification and increase the field of view.
