Calibration
The software provides a calibration function that allows you to perform the most accurate measurements on your photos. You should always set this function first if you want to obtain correct value when taking measurements.
You can use the Crossing option to check that the scale unit is parallel. Then adjust the magnification until the image is clear. Take a picture of the selected area when the scale unit is parallel to the crosswire, as below. Our experience taught us that the measurement could be checked with 99% high precision. Measurement tolerance can be caused by distortion and blur of the human eye.
Double-click the image to open the measurement interface, as below.
Then click on the calibration icon
Click on the start and end points over a known value. Now a dialog box like below will appear and you need to enter the exact value of the trial measurement in Actual measurements. For correct measurement use the enclosed Calibration Ruler
Now manually enter the actual size in mm of the distance you just defined in the field.
The software will then automatically calibrate the magnification. Click OK and the adjusted magnification factor will appear in the upper right corner. Reliable measurements can now be made on all photos taken after calibration using the same microscope focus setting. If you change the focus for a photograph using the dial on the device, it is necessary to recalibrate. If necessary, you can also manually set the magnification for a single photo or for future shots.
You can now use any line option from the menu under the icon below.
Use to measure the value again. If the value measured with software is close to or exactly 100% equal to the exact value of the calibration ruler, it means the calibration is complete.
Adjust calibration
To change the magnification and adjust the focus for photo shooting, recalibrate the magnification factor.
Reset magnification > Reset picture magnification. And then restart the calibration (see earlier in this manual)
Change the magnification factor and take several pictures, click on the image to open the measurement interface. And click on the icon below
Set magnification > Set picture magnification, now a dialog box will appear, as below;
Enter the magnification factor in the dialog box and click OK. If you want to use the same magnification factor to take pictures, just click on
Set magnification > Set capture magnification. Now all images will use the same magnification factor and you can start measuring immediately.
