6.
Adjust the aperture using the aperture ring (top ring) on the lens to a low value
(e.g., “2”).
7.
Reduce the
Shutter time
and
Brightness
parameters in SOPAS ET until the test code
is clearly visible in the image.
8.
Adjust the focus using the focus ring (lower ring) on the top side of the lens so that
the online image shows a sharp, clear image of the test code with no distortion.
✓
The test code in the image comes into focus and the edges are clearly discernible.
✓
Available in Extended mode: the sharpness diagnostic bar is now at its maximum
position.
9.
If necessary, use the
Shutter time
,
Brightness
and
Contrast
sliders to optimize the
brightness and contrast.
10. Use the lock nut fitting to fix the sharpness ring setting in place.
11. Define a suitable aperture setting for the depth of field. In order to do this, check
the settings with the test code. Adjust the aperture to a higher value (e.g., “8”). If a
greater depth of field is required, select a value higher than “8”.
NOTE
The higher the aperture number the lower the image brightness. The image bright‐
ness can be increased in SOPAS ET using the
Brightness
slider. Increasing the
image brightness will, however, reduce the image quality.
12. Use the lock nut fitting to fix the aperture ring setting in place.
13. Remove the external ICL ring illumination unit again and disconnect the connect‐
