Workshop

Customize the SEM Experience for a Multi-user Environment from Novice to Expert

A ZMCC SkillBuilder Workshop

9:00am - 12:00pm PST

Workshop Overview & Agenda

SmartSEM is known for being a customizable UI. This can be used to curate a SEM imaging experience to users across experience levels and to accomplish specific workflows very efficiently. Through the use of easy-to-create macros, leveraging built-in accessibility and safety features, and a unique user-based permissions environment, your ZEISS SEM can be easily molded to fit the diverse needs of a multi-user environment.
This virtual workshop consisting of one three-hour session, streamed live from the ZEISS Microscopy Customer Center (ZMCC) in Dublin, CA. Through screen-sharing from the instrument and multiple cameras, the complete operation of the instrument will be visible as our SEM Application experts cover a full itinerary of training topics as detailed below.
It is recommended that attendees secure time on their instruments after the workshop sessions to apply the shared methods on their own samples. Attendees are strongly encouraged to share their images from individual sessions and interact with our Applications team through independent email threads for further optimization.

Who should attend?
Existing power users and tool owners of ZEISS SEMs and Crossbeams interested in

  • Curating the imaging sessions for different users in a core/multi-user environment from novice to expert levels
  • Developing ​advanced workflows that leverage automation
  • Getting new users up to speed faster with fixed workflows that limit accessibility and guide them through common workflows

Learning objectives after completion of this workshop, attendees should:

  • Speed up advanced and common workflows with the use of automation using easy-to-create macros
  • Feel a peace of mind with new users by efficiently limiting their accessibility
  • Gain some time back from supervising with guided experiences through common workflows

This is a paid workshop.​
Spots are limited.​

Tuesday, November 12th, 9:00am - 12:00pm PST

  • How to set up different user accounts with varying levels of accessibility
  • Customization options within SmartSEM including menu positions, the toolbar and datazone
  • Built-in safety features for new users and how to use them for the novice user
  • How to make some example macros to perform common workflows for the novice user
  • How to make some example macros to perform advanced workflows for the expert user

After the workshop sessions, the attendees are strongly encouraged to attempt the methods shown on their own systems with their own samples. Screen sharing sessions to review the data can be setup with the applications team through independent email threads. Our support team will assist in further optimization and answer any questions to help attendees acquire the best data possible.
