Pannoramic 250 FLASH II 1.18.1 User's Guide
With the Z-stack method separate layers are created and stored, and can be opened with
•
Pannoramic Viewer. The Z-stack slide contains the extended focus layer.
Both for Extended focus and Z-Stack scanning methods, you can determine the desired
number of focus levels with the Focus levels selection box. The current focus value is the
starting point. If you set 5 for example, one current, two focus levels above and below FOVs
are captured. Therefore, it is advised to choose an odd number for the focus levels.
Focus step size determines the spacing between focus levels. One step is around 0.2 µm.
The default settings are: Number of focus levels: 7; Focus step size: 5.
