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. A Z-stack slide includes extended focus layers.
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. Separate
layers are created and stored this way, and can be opened with Pannoramic Viewer.
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.

The specimen holder will be moved to a position where the slide can be removed
manually after opening the cover (see section 5.3.1 Opening the protective cover).
Click this button to notify the software that you have removed the slide manually.
If you select this option, you will be able to see the currently scanned image field
during scanning in the live image display field. This slows down digitization process
and should be activated only with purpose.
