1. OVERVIEW
1.1 Outline
Innovative ergonomic design, leading edge optical systems and a host of unique advanced
features make this Motic metallurgical/industrial microscope ideally suited to the needs of
manufacturing and research & development in the fields of metallurgy, semiconductors and
electronics.
(1) The PSM-1000 provides a 3-lens turret with 1X, NIR tube lens; 1X, NUV tube lens; and 2X,
visible. These lenses cover wavelengths from 355nm to 1064nm and are designed around
the new range of Wave Research Lasers. A laser safety pin is provided.
(2) The optical system has adopted a combination of ultra-long working distance objectives,
which are capable of independent correction of lateral chromatic aberration, and eyepieces
with an ultra-wide field of view.
(3) The quadruple forward facing, spring-loaded nosepiece, with adjustments located on the
side along with the turret can be easily centered using the tools provided. The turret is
placed on a dovetail mount for easy access and removal. The turret comes with colored
stickers to indicate the position of objectives.
(4) The body incorporates polarizing filter slots for easy adaptation.
(5) Various peripherals (optional), including CCD or CMOS camera adapter, Polarizer and
Analyzer are available to broaden applications.

mentioned in the previous step .
z With a screwdriver tighten the laser safety pin.
3.6 Mount Objective
z Insert the objective into the flange of revolver .
Note: 1、The color sticker near the flange and the color line on the objective is the same color.
2、If you purchased an objective, which has a thread (4/5″X 1/36″), insert the optional
Objective Adapter (for 4/5″X 1/36″thread) into revolver first, and then insert the
objective into the Objective Adapter.
3、If the objective is parfocality adjustable; take care not to loosen the lock ring.
10
3. SETUP (CONTINUED)
z Repeat this procedure for the other objective lens.
3.7 Adjusting the eyepiece diopter
Adjust the diopter of the eyepiece as follows.
Step1: Turn the diopter adjustment ring of the eyepiece until the lower edge of the eyepiece tube is
aligned with the “0” index line (white). Align both eyepieces.
Step2: Prepare a sample and set the illumination. Set the revolving nosepiece to a
high magnification (20X or 50X) and focus the sample with the focusing knobs. Set the
magnification of the tube lens to 1X.
Step3: Turn the revolving nosepiece to change the lens magnification from a high magnification
(20X or 50X) to a lower magnification (5X or 2X). Turn the diopter adjustment ring to obtain
the sharpest image for each eye, without moving the focusing knobs.
Step4: Turn the diopter adjustment ring;
a) Clockwise if near-sighted (-)
b) Counterclockwise if far-sighted (+)
The diopter has a range of –5D to +5D.
z Repeat this procedure twice for even sharper images.
3.8 Parfocality of Objectives
Be sure to parfocus the objective lens after mounting the objective onto the microscope completely.
(Parfocality adjustable objective only.)
z The highest objective (nonadjustable) can be set onto the work piece by turning the revolver
until hearing a click sound.
11
3. SETUP (CONTINUED)
z Turn the coarse adjustment handle and move the main body of the microscope to either an
upper or lower position to obtain the image coarsely.
z Turn the fine adjustment handle and move the main body of the microscope to either an upper
or lower position to obtain the sharpest image.
z The second highest objective lens can be set onto the work piece by turning the revolver until
hearing a click sound.
z Turn the coarse adjustment handle and move the main body of the microscope to either an
upper or lower position to obtain the image coarsely.
z Turn the fine adjustment handle and move the main body of microscope to either an upper or
lower position to obtain the sharpest image.
z If the position of the main body is upper, adjust the objective as follows:
Step1: Remove the objective from the revolver.
Step2: Grasp the objective body and loosen the lock ring .
Step3: Turn the adjustment ring anticlockwise and tighten the lock ring.
Step4: Insert the objective back into the flange of revolver.
z If the position of the main body is lower, adjust the objective as follows:
Step1: Remove the objective from the revolver.
Step2: Grasp the objective body and loosen the lock ring.
Step3: Turn the adjustment ring clockwise and tighten the lock ring.
Step4: Insert the objective back into the flange of revolver.
z Repeat these procedures until the second highest objective is parfocal with the highest
objective.
12
3. SETUP (CONTINUED)
z Similarly, adjust the focal point of objective in the order of higher magnification.
3.9 Parcentration of objectives
The highest objective (nonadjustable) is not required to parcenter.
z Insert a eyepiece with reticle into the right tube (or left tube).
z The highest objective (nonadjustable) can be set onto the work piece by turning the revolver
until hearing a click sound.
z Adjust the center of the standard point on work piece to the center of the right field of view.
z The second highest objective can be set onto the work piece by turning the revolver until
