You can disable this for the current analysis by unchecking Auto-Apply, or you can disable it for all analyses in Project Preferences.General. Once applied, the Layout will be drawn with 7 rays per field, instead of 3.The discussion includes demonstrations setting system properties, using layouts, and some basic analyses, extended source modeling, and modeling off-axis systems.Sequential ray tracing is computationally fast and is extremely useful for the design, optimization, tolerancing, and analysis of such systems.
Shortcuts to most of these features are available for convenience in the toolbar above the Ribbon Bar. If it is floating, it can be moved and resized to any convenient location. Default dockfloat behavior can be set in the Project Preferences or in the Setup.Window Control group. The Lens Data Editor has columns for Comments, Radius, Thickness, Glass, and Semi-Diameter (radial clear aperture) and Conic constant. The latter five data items are used to define the majority of optical components. You can easily reorder them by click on the column header and dragging to a new position. The position of each surface along the optical axis is referenced to the previous surface. In other words, the Thickness column in the Lens Data Editor refers to the distance from the previous surface and not from a global reference point. The first column also displays a surface type, the default of which is the Standard surface. Some surfaces require more defining parameters than the Standard surface. When those types are defined, additional columns will appear as necessary. You can right-click columns or rows to freeze, hide, insert or delete. Multiple cells can be selected and copied, or data can be pasted from the clipboard. In addition calculated data can be saved in the session file if Include Calculated Data in Session is checked. You will see a screen appear that lists directories containing sample files. Select the file ZemaxSamplesSequentialObjectivesDouble Gauss 28 degree field.zmx. The file will load, and the Lens Data Editor will fill with data. Note there are 12 surfaces, with surface 6 being the system stop surface (STO). Each surface has a Radius, Thickness, Glass, and Semi-Diameter. To change the settings for this window, select Settings from the Layout window menu bar. A dialog box will expand that allows you to customize the settings for this Layout diagram. By default settings are auto-applied, meaning they are implemented as soon as you click away from the edited setting. You can disable this for the current analysis by unchecking Auto-Apply, or you can disable it for all analyses in Project Preferences.General. Once applied, the Layout will be drawn with 7 rays per field, instead of 3.
