CAMERA SETTINGS

TAGARNO MOVE High Speed Modular Microscope - CAMERA
HEAD CONFIGURATION

  1. White balance calibration
    Perform an automatic white balance adjustment in order to get colors displayed correctly on the screen. There must be a white object present in the camera’s field of view when the white balance is being adjusted. White balance calibration is made each time the camera is turned on to adjust to the given light conditions. NB: If the camera’s field of view does not contain a white object, when the unit is turned on, the white balance will be incorrect and it will be necessary to perform the white balance adjustment process as described previously.

  2. Optimal working distance
    This setup works in 2 steps and needs to be carried out on a flat surface. Follow the on-screen directions to find the optimal working distance. The magnification settings prior to the performance will be restored.

  3. Close-up Lens
    Indicate which lens is mounted on your TAGARNO microscope, to get the right magnification levels displayed in the On Screen Display when zooming in and out.

  4. Start magnification
    Choose the start magnification level you want your TAGARNO microscope to automatically set when turning your system on.

  5. Lock magnification
    Lock your magnification level, so your microscope is always working at your start magnification level and you are not able to manually zoom in/out.

  6. Advanced camera settings
    When activated, the advanced camera settings can be modified in detail for optimum visual inspection result. Deactivated by default.

  7. Wide dynamic range
    When this option is selected and auto exposure mode is active, the camera uses individual exposure settings for dark and light areas. This option can be useful to reduce glare when inspecting reflective objects.
    NB: If the camera live image is grainy, increase Exposure compensation in Auto exposure mode.

  8. Picture flip
    Select if you want to display your image on the screen as placed below the camera or flip it 180 degrees.

  9. IR filter
    Turn the Infrared filter off when using the Infrared ring light.
    To use regular ring lights turn the Infrared filter on.

  10. White balance calibration at LED light change
    Switch on if you want an automatic white balance calibration to be performed when the LED light is changed. Deactivated by default.
    Switch off if you do not want an automatic white balance calibration to be performed when the LED light is changed.

  11. Image format
    Choose between different image formats when saving an image.
    Available formats are TIFF, PNG, JPG, or BMP.
    NB: The following EXIF data are included when saving images in .jpg format: Brand and model of the microscope, creation date, serial number, and field of view. Any annotations added in the Measurement application are also included here.

  12. Image prefix
    Replace the default image prefix (img_) preceding the date and time stamp in the filenames of captured images. This feature requires an attached keyboard.

  13. Assign image name
    When this setting is active, the microscope will prompt for an image name before storing a captured image.
    NB! When using an attached scanner to name captured images on this microscope we advise that the scanner is connected directly to one of the two USB ports on the microscope.
    It is not recommended to connect the scanner to an attached USB Hub unless it has been thoroughly tested. The communication through some hubs can unfortunately introduce data loss resulting in one or more random characters missing in the scanned image name.

  14. Image preview
    This feature allows users to quickly inspect and capture images of new samples. When an image is captured the default behavior is to preview the image at the center of the display for 5 seconds. Image preview can now be disabled, which will display a more discrete text box for 3 seconds.

Before using the application, make sure to specify which lens is currently mounted on the microscope in the microscope camera settings.
If the mounted lens is not available in the microscope camera settings, please perform a ruler calibration. For more information, see section 4 in SETUP MENU.
Ruler direction
Turn the Ruler application on in the Applications menu with the left and right arrow buttons on the XPLUS control box. Choose between Horizontal, Vertical, or Both. ****

Turn off
Turn the ruler off by once again accessing the Ruler option under the Applications menu point and choosing Off. ** System units**
Choose your preferred system units (metric or imperial) under the General settings menu point in the setup menu.

** Ruler color**
Set the ruler color to your preferred color to separate it from your displayed object. Go to the Ruler color option under the General settings menu point in the setup menu.
Choose between 6 different colors: Yellow, blue, red, black, white, and green.

** Manual focus setting**
When the Ruler is chosen, the system will automatically start in a manual focus setting to focus on the part of the object furthest away.
If needed, manually adjust the focus by adjusting the height of the microscope to get the desired object in focus. Then, use the zoom-in and zoom-out buttons to fine adjust the focus.

If encountering problems finding focus, please use “Optimal Working Distance” in the microscope camera settings menu, before using the Ruler app.
Save images with or without graphics
It is also possible to save an image with the Ruler graphics by long pressing the image button on the control box.
Short-pressing the button will save the image without graphics.

WATERMARK

With Watermark, your saved images will have an info field containing specifications from the time of use (time stamp, horizontal field of view, microscope model, and serial number) and/or a custom-defined watermark (e.g.: logo or CONFIDENTIAL).
When activated, the watermark will appear on all captured images.
Creating a Watermark
To use Watermark, create a PNG file that measures 1920x1080px and give it a file name ending with “.png”. We recommend using GIMP, which is a free graphics editor, or Adobe Photoshop.

  1. Enable or disable all settings
    Choose to enable or disable all watermark settings at the same time.

  2. Enable or disable the info field
    Enable or disable an info field, automatically stating an image prefix (default or as stated under Camera settings), timestamp, horizontal field of view plus microscope model, and serial number.

  3. Enable or disable a custom watermark
    Choose to enable or disable the latest imported custom watermark.

  4. Import a custom watermark
    At this stage, you are able to import a custom watermark by inserting a USB memory stick into the microscope containing a watermark file.
    It is possible to import only one custom watermark at a time. This means that if you wish to change the current watermark, you need to follow the steps above to import a new watermark.
    NB: It is only possible to import watermarks from USB storage with a FAT32 formatted file system. If your USB storage does not currently have this file system, a dialogue box allows you to format the USB storage. A second pop-up will ask you to confirm your selection.
    Please notice that all files on the USB memory stick will be deleted once formatting begins. Formatting time will vary.
    After importing, you can see a preview of the watermark before closing the dialogue box.
    To access saved files, see the manual section ACCESS SAVED PHOTOS.
