General use for Optimum 150 / 200 / 200M
 Calibration : Make sure your device is properly calibrated. To do so, please use the instruc-
tions for the software.
 Optics 4) : Please refer to the "OptiVID" operating instructions.
 Software : Use the F1 key for online help or refer to our "Quick start" or "Instructions for
Use" documents.
 Zoom 3) : Turn the knob 5) to change the magnification. The zoom positions are indexed.
You should therefore feel a "click" when you are in the required position. A sticker on the
zoom allows you to know your position. Make sure you are on the same position in your
software.
 Sharpness : Place the part to be measured on the glass 13) of the X-Y table 14). Switch to
the highest magnification of your zoom 5) to get the shallowest depth of field. Use the hand-
wheel 10) to adjust the sharpness of the image. You can then return to a lower magnifica-
tion, the image will remain sharp.
 Measurement : To move your part, use the hand-wheels 7) and 19). If necessary, you can
disengage the X and Y axes using levers 8) and 18).
 Lighting 6) 9) 12) : Adjust the light intensities using panel 3) for Optimum with manual
drives. For more information, refer to the operating instructions
inspection, it is very important to control the reflections on the parts and to know the optimal
conditions to guarantee the reliability of the measurement. This involves working with rather
dark images. A calibration operation on a part similar to the ones you are measuring, whose
exact dimensions are known to you, will make it possible to define the ideal lighting
conditions.
