Parfocalizing
After installing the camera on the microscope, parfocalize as
described below to assure that the eyepiece image and the
camera image are both in focus simultaneously.
Note: If you are using a 1:1 c-mount adapter, parfocalizing is
not necessary.
Parfocalize as follows:
1 Place a focusing target or specimen under the microscope.
2 Adjust the microscope lighting and focus to optimize the
image viewed through the eyepiece.
3 If a viewfinder image is not visible in the DMC Direct
window on your computer display, click the Preview button
in the main DMC Direct window.
4 Adjust the c-mount on the microscope until the target or
specimen image on the computer display is in focus. (Refer to
your microscope instructions for c-mount adjustment
instructions.)
