The correct confocal aperture position is the position with which the bright part
comes on the center of the screen.
The bright part may sometimes move across the stop edges of the image
window during the focal position adjustment. Adjust the focus and confocal
aperture position alternate for a few cycles.

from immediately after the save operation.
