Adjusting the eyebase and eyepoint
65 55
75
The interpupillary distance and preferred degree of contact
with the eyepieces vary from user to user.
Prepare the microscope for surgery using a user table.
Adjusting the eyebase
Set the eyelenses of the eyepieces to "0" or select the
required diopter value.
Set the magnification changer to step 10.
Look into the eyepieces and adjust the tubes with the
setting wheel or by hand (in the case of binocular tubes
without a setting wheel) until a circular field of view is
visible.
Adjusting the parfocality
Adjusting the diopter settings
Adjust the diopter settings accurately for each eye separately;
only this method will ensure that the image will stay in focus
throughout the entire zoom range (parfocal).
1. Prepare the microscope
Switch on the microscope at the control unit and place
a flat test object such as a piece of paper beneath the
objective.
Set the maximum brightness.
Set the minimum magnification.
Shift the microscope until the test object is visible in the
center of the field of view and reasonably sharp.
Interpupillary distance scale
Setting wheel
Rotary ring for adjusting the
diopter settings
2. Focus on the test object
Set the maximum magnification.
Focus the microscope.
Set the minimum magnification.
3. Adjusting the diopter settings
Adjust the diopter setting for each eye in turn, until the
image is seen in sharp focus.
Set the maximum magnification.
Focus the microscope again.
Set the minimum magnification.
Inspect the diopter settings, readjusting them if necessary
so that both images are sharp.
4. Checking parfocality
Zoom through the whole range, observing the test
object. The image sharpness must remain constant at all
magnifications. If it does not, then repeat points 2 to 4 of
this procedure.
