Does anyone have an instructional document on how to change lenses? I have a Tesio300 that came with a 2X lens installed and a 0.5X lens as an extra and I want to use the 0.5X lens but can't. I thought I had it in correctly by removing the ring light and screwing it in underneath but when I tried to calibrate it to the ROI solid block master I could not get the .562 square to fit in the graphics display window. Any help would be appreciated.
It sounds like you changed the lens correctly. If you've got tiny fingers, it is possible to swap without removing the ring light, but some people find it easier to remove the light first as you did.
As long as you've selected the TESA_VISIO300_ZOOM_0.5X tip then you should be ok.
That's all you do... screw in new lens, create new probe file of that objective size, and run the optical calibration.
The crux of the matter is that by selecting the ROI slide, it means you are running the calibration routine designed for the Ram Optical range of machines. The TESA machines are calibrated with a Hexagon Metrology slide, which is a totally different calibration routine designed to be machine independant. I suspect that the depth of field differences on these two machines is causing this issue, and suggest getting in touch with your supplier and getting the correct calibration artifact for the VISIO machine.
