Calibrating a microscope involves several steps to ensure that measurements are accurate:
Place the Stage Micrometer: Place the stage micrometer on the microscope stage and focus on the engraved scale. Align the Ocular Micrometer: Insert the ocular micrometer into the eyepiece and align it with the stage micrometer scale. Adjust the Calibration: Use the microscope's calibration software or manually adjust the settings until the scales align precisely. Verify the Calibration: Verify the calibration by measuring a known standard and ensuring that the measurements are accurate.
