Complete technical information about Smart G-Scope for professionals and integrators.

Magnification modes and working distances

Choose an optical mode, position the microscope within its working range, then focus. The 40×, 100×, 180× and 250× labels describe the maximum magnification of each mode, not a fixed magnification at every distance.

Working distance is measured from the tip of the end cap to the object, not from the microscope body or the stand.

Magnification modes and working distances
Optical mode	Working distance	How to position the microscope
40×	3 cm to infinity The lowest magnification mode and the longest working range. Keep the end-cap tip at least 3 cm from the object.	The lowest magnification mode and the longest working range. Keep the end-cap tip at least 3 cm from the object.
100×	1–4.5 cm Inspect without touching the object. Keep the end-cap tip between 1 and 4.5 cm away.	Inspect without touching the object. Keep the end-cap tip between 1 and 4.5 cm away.
180×	Contact to 1.7 cm For close inspection: place the end cap in contact with the object or up to 1.7 cm above it.	For close inspection: place the end cap in contact with the object or up to 1.7 cm above it.
250×	Contact to 0.8 cm The highest magnification mode: place the end cap in contact with the object or up to 0.8 cm above it.	The highest magnification mode: place the end cap in contact with the object or up to 0.8 cm above it.

Focusing range and automatic measurement are different. G-Scope Desktop checks whether the current focus is within the manufacturer-calibrated interval. Use the calibrated image scale for measurements; if automatic calibration is unavailable, use a correctly prepared manual calibration with digital zoom off.

Capillaroscopy uses a separate 250× capillary mode with the dedicated capillary end cap in contact with the sample. That end cap is not part of the standard package.
