WolfVision VZ-17 - Manual (Page 8)

1. Place your subject material on the working surface. A synchronized lightfield on
the working surface marks the pick-up area of the built-in camera! Just place your
subject material in the illuminated area.
2. Select the enlargement required with the ZOOM keys (#13).
3. Use the MIRROR keys (#12) on the control panel or the remote control to change
the vertical position of the pick-up area. The upper mirror can also be moved by
hand! This does not cause any harm to the motor of this mirror!
4. Adjust the sharpness with the FOCUS keys (#19)
DO NOT TOUCH THE MIRROR SURFACE, AS FINGERPRINTS CAUSE
BRIGHT AND HAZY SPOTS ON THE PICTURE ! ALWAYS KEEP THE
MIRROR CLEAN ! CAUTION: SENSITIVE FRONT COATED MIRROR!
For showing 3-dimensional objects with the WolfVision Visualizer, just place them on the working surface
and adjust ZOOM and FOCUS (as mentioned). Due to a special WolfVision lens the object can be up to
25 cm (9.7") in height. If the object is to big for the working surface or if you want to show it from the side
just place it behind or in front of the unit and tilt the top mirror by hand or using the MIRROR keys (#12).
WORKING OUTSIDE THE WORKING SURFACE
(all Visualizers)
In this way it is also possible to make recordings of subjects in
the room or surrounding area, as with a video camera by just
tilting the reflector head.
Due to the great focal range it is possible to show details
in every distance to the unit.
If you want to record people you should turn off the light with
the LIGHT key (#21), so that they are not blinded by the light.
WORKING ON THE WORKING SURFACE
(all Visualizers)
SYNCHRONIZED LIGHTFIELD
(all Visualizers)
FOCUSING
(all Visualizers)
If the top light of the Visualizer is used (normal working condition) a synchronized lightfield always marks the
pick-up area of the built-in camera on the working surface. The alignment of this lightfield is made for working
on the working surface. Because of the oblique mounting of the camera and the light projector of the Visualizer
the lightfield shifts to the left when the distance between the Visualizer and the scanned object is increased
(when capturing images outside of the working surface). This means that the lightfield no longer exactly shows
the recorded area. In this case switch off the Visualizers top light with the LIGHT key (#21) and work with room
light.
When the Visualizer is turned on the focus automatically adjusts to the working surface level. As a result
it is not necessary to readjust the focus if you are only working with flat material (text, photos etc.).
Furthermore, due to the great depth of focus of the Visualizer it is rarely necessary to readjust the focus.
Only very high objects require a focus adjustment.
If you have misadjusted the focus and want to set it back for working with flat objects just press both
focus keys (#19) on the control panel of the unit (not on the remote control!) simultanously. This activates
the Auto focus for flat objects. (With this function the Visualizer checks the mirror position and optimizes
the focus for the working surface level.)
