Luxxor Video Microscope – Operation
The bottom ring controls the working distance from the
lens to the object under inspection. Set at Far, the working
distance will be about 4 inches. At Near, working distance
will be about 3 inches. This mechanism should not be used
for general focusing as it also changes the magnification. If
the magnification changes, any measurement calibration that
has been set will be invalid and have to be re-done. Set the
position of the ring to Far to get 15X to 51X magnification, or
to Near to get 25 X to 83X. once you choose a setting,
tighten the Locking Knob so that it does not accidentally
move.
For focusing, ALWAYS move the Vertical Slide up and down
the Column for coarse focus and use the silver Focus Knob on
the right side of the Vertical Slide for fine focus.
