Hi,
With John's help I've started using image shift on our Jeol 8530 to correct for shifts with beam current and kV.
It's easy to set up. In the probewin.ini file ImageShiftPresent must be set to 1.
ImageShiftPresent=1
Then in analytical conditions - type in the amount of x and y shift required.
Checking this against the amount of image shift recorded on the Jeol software - shows that all is good.
e.g. PFE set image shift to X -2um, Y 3 um
Amount of image shift recorded in the Jeol software:
dX=-2.0020um
dY=2.9968um
So to set image shift - Analytical conditions - OK applies to column. One can remove image shift either in Analytical conditions - or on the Jeol software using the SHIFT button.
