How to do calibration and measurement in HDMI mode: Basic steps: 1. Click on the calibration icon to get the calibration table. 2. Move the cursor away from the calibration table to start the calibration. a) The live image should show a calibration slide or a specimen of known dimensions. b) Draw a line to get a reference length, and enter the length value in the calibration table There are five unit options available: MIL, CM, MM, UM and INCH. 3. Select the objective magnification in, and it can also fill in user defined Mag. value if needed. a) This data only needs to be entered if the user wishes to use the same camera to capture images at different objective settings and to perform measurement. In this case, there is no need to create calibration files for images at all the objective settings, just change Mag. to get the corresponding calibration file. b) If the user need to use one objective in application, select N/A c) If there is no suitable objective magnification from the list, the keyboard can be used to add an extra group mag. value directly. 4. By entering a name for the newly created calibration file it is possible to create 10 6
groups of calibration files. 5. Click to complete the calibration settings. 6. Click to go to the image measurement page. 7.Right-click anywhere on the live image to get the measurement menu. 7
