The objective can be raised to a preset retracting position, and
then restored back to the original by refocusing operation.
When the Escape button is pressed, the objective is raised to the
preset retracting position while saving the current position.
Pressing the Escape button once more returns the objective to
the original position. This function is useful for temporarily
Retracting/restoring objective with
retracting the objective, for example when replacing the sample or
[ESCAPE] button
when switching the objective.
The Escape button will light up when the objective is "retracted,"
and will be turned off otherwise.
When the stage is retracted, the elevating section cannot be
moved by turning the focus knobs.
