  Incorporating a specially-designed device, Inscoper I.S. provides a new user experience with improved technical performance, system integration and ease-of-use.
  - User journey
  - Getting started
    When you launch the Inscoper I.S. software, the start window will appear. You will have access to the software version number and can choose from several options to begin your user journey:
  - Display settings
    To access the interface settings, click on Settings > Display Settings.
  - Configuration
  - Acquisition
    This tab allows you to set the entire acquisition sequence, using all the system's dimension modules.
    - Time
      The Time dimension is used to run time-lapse and image cells over a long period of time.
    - Multichannels
      This dimension is useful to select two (or more) channels and add them in the acquisition sequences.
    - Positions
      This dimension is dedicated to image different XYZ positions from a sample. You can switch from this dimension to the Tiling dimension by the button Switch to Tiling.
    - Tiling
    - Preview feature in Position and Tiling dimension
    - Multiwell plate mode
      The Inscoper software has a strong feature for imaging multiwell plates and for some applications including High Content Imaging.The Multiwell plate mode of the Inscoper I.S. is compatible with all commercial or homemade supports (multi-well, multi-slide, etc.). An option Well Plate Editor allows you to simply add a large panel of supports. Click here to set it up.
    - Z-stack
      The volumetric imaging with Inscoper I.S. can be performed using the Z-Stack dimension.
    - Software autofocus
      The Inscoper I.S. has a software autofocus mode to keep samples at the focus throughout the acquisition sequence.
    - Multi-sequence acquisition
      When an acquisition sequence is ready, it is possible to launch it or to add others to create a multi-sequence acquisition.
    - Data Processor
    - Saving images and metadata
  - Visualization
- Custom Scripting module
  You can use this module to call a Python script during the acquisition sequence. You must have at your disposal python scripts, structured with a template similar to that of the applications included in the inscoper-scripts resource provided with this module. In this guide, you may select any script provided as part of this resource.

Acquisition

This tab allows you to set the entire acquisition sequence, using all the system's dimension modules.

This tab can be used to prepare a multi-dimensional acquisition.

Choose the dimension(s) from a large panel.
Select the right data processor for your acquisition.
Set the path for the backup files.
Launch your acquisition.

The interface may be different (especially the dimension's list) depending on the type of equipment in your microscope system.

All available dimensions are displayed in the same way. The list of UI controls for the dimensions set up is as follows.


	The dimension is not activated and won't be included in the acquisition sequence. Click on to activate it.
	The dimension is activated and will be included in the acquisition sequence. Click to deactivate.
	Dimension parameter set.
	Click to set up the dimension according to your application.
	Drag and drop to change the order of all dimensions to suit your needs.
