Exposure Lock
Clicking on the Exposure Lock button 
 switches the exposure lock  on or off. When on 
changing the Line Time will automatically change the ISO to maintain the same exposure. Changing 
the ISO will correspondingly change the Line Time to maintain the same exposure. It is a fast, accu-
rate means to optimize the balance of Line Time and ISO for shorter scan times or less image noise.
Capture Mode
This popup menu selects whether an RGB color image, or a monochrome image 
from the red, green, or blue channel, is captured.  There is no time saved by captur-
ing only a single channel, but the file size is one-third that of the same image in 
RGB color.  
When a single channel is selected, the preview changes to display only the 
selected channel, but all prescans are still captured in RGB color.  
When a single 
channel capture is selected, the histogram display will change to the color of the selected channel. 
The histogram display will be presented in black for an RGB mode. Capturing an image with a single 
channel is similar to capturing an image with panchromatic black and white film through a deep red, 
green or blue filter. The visual effect from capturing each color channel can be quickly observed by 
simply changing the selected channel with this menu.  
 
For true panchromatic (full-spectrum) imaging, an RGB color image should be captured 
and subsequently converted to grayscale with a suitable image editing application.
When a prescan is saved, it will be saved with all the current settings in effect (e.g. color balance, 
line time, etc.). If single capture mode is in effect, only the selected channel will be saved.
