Frequently Asked Questions
What distinguishes the 26700-141-556?
It combines the MicroVue 2.0 digital microscope with the Ultra Glide boom stand. Unlike the 556XYR configuration, it does not include the X/Y/R gliding stage.
Does it include a monitor and camera?
Yes. The microscope integrates a 13.3-inch HD display and Full HD camera for standalone viewing.
Is a computer required?
No. Built-in tools support inspection, measurement and image/video capture without a computer.
Is the camera Full HD or 4K?
This system provides Full HD live imaging at 1920 x 1080 and 60 fps, not 4K.
What magnification does it provide?
The manufacturer specifies 20.7x–133.4x on the integrated monitor without optional lenses. Optional accessories change the viewing configuration.
Can I save images and video?
Yes. Save 2-million-pixel still images and 1080p video using USB storage or MicroSD. A USB flash drive is included.
How does quadrant lighting help?
Selecting individual LED quadrants changes illumination direction to help adjust contrast and reveal different surface details.
Can I measure components on screen?
Yes. Built-in tools cover length, distance, circle and area measurements plus annotations. Follow the manufacturer's calibration procedure using the supplied scale.
Are the X/Y/R stage and 360 Viewer included?
No. Both are optional for this configuration. The stage moves the sample; the viewer changes the viewing direction through an angled mirror.
Is the optional UV ring light a curing system?
The supplied information describes the 365 nm UV ring light for fluorescent-material inspection, not curing. It is not included.
