objectives.
In the
Precise
mode, the velocity is adjusted to
the objective in use.
Switch between Fast and Precise via

Store and recall stage positions
With the Software Leica DMControl, module:
DMOperation, different stage positions can be
temporarily stored. Only the XY position is
stored, not the current Z-position.
Apart from the loading position (Load), 5 additio-
nal stage positions can be temporarily stored.
The current position is displayed on the XYZ
menu of the LeicaScreen. When switching on
the microscope, the stage will move to a defined
starting position after initialization.
