The Ergonomy		Details
	Relax while You Work. For Axio Imager, Carl Zeiss has created a forward-looking operating concept and has greatly simplified numerous functions. Our aim is to relieve the strain on the user even more, especially when you are working on the system for long periods. You can therefore concentrate fully on your application. All this is supported by technology that can be operated intuitively, irrespective of whether it is manual or motorized. The touch screen - Key information at a glance. To simplify complex steps, Axio Imager.Z1m and M1m have all functions grouped together for the first time on a touch screen (TFT) display. This allows you to control all motorized components easily at the touch of a button and display microscope status and control. The integrated light manager ensures the best possible light and contrast setting. In addition to fixed presettings, it is also possible to store complex procedures as individual settings and retrieve them at any time with just the touch of a button - the perfect way to ensure that Axio Imager runs smoothly in a multiuser environment.		Axio Imager Optics Design & Comfort Ergonomy Intelligence Inside Applications
	The TFT display: working with complex components has never been so easy.
	The control buttons - Intuitive operation. Axio Imager has a well-designed operating concept. The control buttons, which are arranged ergonomically around the focusing drive, can be easily distinguished thanks to their tactile surfaces. The manual stand has five buttons whose functions can be freely configured, while the motorized stand has over ten.
	Tactile surfaces, buttons with selctable functions. Axio Imager's multifunctional control elements enable intuitive operation.
	The control panel - Freedom of movement.* Axio Imager can also be remotely controlled using a freely- positionable control panel. This panel includes a focusing drive and brightness regulator. You can also pre-program functions of your choice. The panel offers an interface for the TFT and for the x- and y-control of the motorized stage – and a well thought-out concept that gives you greater freedom of movement.

	The ergotube - A new dimension in comfort. Used for the first time with Axio Imager: the new 50-15-50 ergotube from Carl Zeiss with upright, unreversed image. With a continuous 50 mm height adjustment, a fixed viewing angle of 15° (ergonomically ideal) and a continuous horizontal extension of 50 mm, it satisfies the highest standards in terms of comfort and provides unrestricted optical quality in all positions.
