2. When measuring the height using the autofocus unit, the focusing
unit rises by AF operation. Therefore, the focusing unit may stop
rising because the focusing unit reaches the upper limit of its
movable area.
3. When using the MM6-OB10X, the objective may collide with the
stage before the focusing unit reaches the lower limit of the Z-axis
movable area. Therefore, operate it with careful attention.
4. When using the objective with a working distance less than 5 mm
in combination with the rotatable stage, the objective may collide
with the stage before the focusing unit reaches the upper limit of
the Z-axis movable area. Therefore, set the lower software limit and
operate it carefully.
5. When using the rotatable stages STM7-RS100/STM7-RS200/STM7-
RS300, the Z measurement range will be narrower by the amount of
the rotatable stage height. (30 mm)
6. When using the large frame STM7-LF/STM7-LFA, a specimen whose
height is 100 mm or less can be placed at the position backward
from the light axis by 180 mm or more.
Stage
1. The Y-axis knob of the 50x50 mm stage STM7-CS50 or the 100x100
mm stage STM7-CS100 comes out below the stage-mounting
surface.
When placing the stage on the table, etc., avoid the Y-axis knob
from contacting the table surface.
2. When you purchase a new stage or replace/repair the stage, input
the setting values suitable for the stage again (page 74).
3. When you move the stage by releasing the clutch, hold the
movement knob. (Do not apply the excess load to the X- or Y-axis
knob.)
Adapter to mount measuring objectives
1. While MM6-OB1X is attached, do not attach/detach the adapter to
mount measuring objectives to/from the microscope.
2. Do not attach the BD type of the UIS2 metallurgical objective to the
adapter to mount measuring objectives.
Measurement objective
1. When the MM6-OB1X objective is used in reflected light
illumination, spot-like flare may be observed on the center of
measuring objects with low reflectance.
Hand switch
1. The hand switch is a module dedicated to the control box for
manual STM7-CB. You cannot use this hand switch with the control
box for motorized STM7-CBA.
Focus controller
1. The focus controller is a module dedicated to the control box for
motorized STM7-CBA. You cannot use this focus controller with the
control box for manual STM7-CB.
2. Do not rotate the fine/coarse focusing knobs on both sides in the
reverse direction. They may be damaged.
