Chapter 6, “AC Modes.” Please refer to Chapter 6 for more on how to
set up the microscope for imaging.
In AAC Mode the drive signal can be provided by either the Head
Electronics Box or the MAC Mode controller. To use the MAC Mode
controller as the AC source, choose Controls > Setup > Options, then
check the Serial Port AC Mode Controller box. The system will now use
the drive signal from the MAC Mode controller, through the HEB to the
microscope.
Upon startup, the software may instruct you to update the system’s
firmware. Follow the on-screen instructions to do so.
