CHAPTER 3 – Installation


The AF91x can be installed on many types of video microscope setups that include the
use of infinity corrected optics. The diagram below shows a typical optical setup
including the AF91x unit.

The AF91x must be installed in the infinity region of the optical path. If using an infinity
corrected objective lens (typically noted by the ∞ symbol), then the unit must be placed
between the objective lens and any other focusing lenses. The AF91x has both metric and
imperial mounting points. Refer to the mechanical diagram for placement. The unit
should be mounted so that it is as stable as possible. A beam combining optic should be
used, preferably on an adjustable mount. If polarizing optics are used, the polarization of
the laser diode is vertical to the mounting surface of the AF91x. Be sure that the
polarization is correct or else the performance of the unit may suffer due to transmission
