Using the
AUX port in KH-3000 main unit, auto features such as auto focus and,
height measurement can be added to the system. These features can
be combined with other automated features such as auto xy stage and
auto zoom.
(2 axis controller)
CT-7
is a controller for 2 axis such as XY/YZ/XZ stage. For additional
functionalit, CT-7 can be interconnected. This will allow automation
of X-Y-Z axis stage and auto zoom or auto rotary(ex.MX-5040RZ)
features. Two or more axis are controlled by either CT-7 or computer
which is fully programable. With the optional LCD display(CT7S-LD)attached
to CT-7, height measurement is easily accomplished either manually
or automated with auto focus feature. The combination of CT-7 and
KH-3000 expand the additional capabilites to higher levels of automation.

KH-3000 integrates
a feature that indicates the focus contrast by a bar graph. The focus
indicator is shown below. This feature can be combined with CT-7 (2
axis controller) and ST-HZ (auto z axis focus block) to provide automatic
focusing of the image. The focused image is defined as the higher
contrast image. The high contrast area in the image can be set manually.
From this setting, contrast is shown as number or relative position
on the bar graph . This calculation is reflected by the auto z axis
movement (up and down movement of lens). When the highest contrast
in the indicated area is achieved, auto z axis movement will stop
and the image will be in sharp focus.
