IMPORTANT: Incorrect specimen size, height, and detector settings can damage the objective
lens or the semiconductor BSE located on the underside of the objective lens, as
well as the specimen itself.
IMPORTANT: To avoid inadvertently disabling the !Stop button, the GO button should not be
pressed continuously when the stage is in motion.
