3.5.7.13 Movable Range and Limitation by Optional Detectors
(1) Movable range of the specimen stage for various specimen sizes
The movable range is limited when observing large size specimens.
Stage motion is limited to the movable range automatically designated by the computer.
The limit value is calculated using the size information set on the Set Sample Size/Detector
dialog box.
The following operating ranges apply:
• For small size specimen, X and Y limitation is specified so the movable range covers just

The limit value is calculated using the size information set on the Set Sample Size/Detector
dialog box.
The following operating ranges apply:
• For small size specimen, X and Y limitation is specified so the movable range covers just
the size of the specimen.
• For large size specimen, the movable range is limited to safety area. When optional
detectors are inserted to their operating position, the safety area will be limited to
narrower range.

IMPORTANT: Always measure the height of a specimen using the supplied height gauge. In
the Sample Size/Height input field in the Operation Panel Stage tab, set the
specimen size and height. Incorrect specimen size, height, or detector settings
can damage the objective lens, the BSE detector located on the underside of the
objective lens, or the specimen itself.
