Questions and answers
My lynx stereo dynascope isn't maintaining focus as I change the magnification. Do you have any recommendations for trouble shooting this issue? When I change the dial on the magnification slowly, there is little clarity. If I change the dial on the magnification normally, it completely lose focus
To troubleshoot focus issues with the Vision Lynx Stereo when changing magnification, follow these steps:
1. Check Focus High Maintenance – Ensure that the Focus High is maintained throughout the magnification control (1.5x or 2x) across the zoom range.
2. Adjust the Subject Platform Height – Use the Subject Platform Height Adjuster to bring the subject into focus.
3. Graticule Adjustment – If the graticule is present, loosen the retaining knobs and move the graticule up or down for focus. Re-tighten the knobs after adjustment.
4. Clean the Viewing Screen – Periodically clean the viewing screen with an optical cloth to maintain picture quality.
5. Clean the Graticule – If focus issues persist after cleaning the viewing screen, remove and clean the graticule if fitted.
6. Re-adjust the Graticule – If the graticule was removed and cleaned, refocus and centralize it by loosening the retaining knobs, adjusting, and then re-tightening.
By following these steps, you can troubleshoot and resolve focus issues when changing magnification.
