Purpose This article describes the method to verify/compare the tilt angles after importing an OSLO Lens File into TracePro. OSLO uses traditional optical design tilt angles, and TracePro uses Euler angles, so the comparison of angle values is not direct. View Tilt Angle Values In OSLO: select...
Question "Which tools within TracePro are you aware of for the detection of vignetting? What is your strategy? One (clumsy) way which comes to my mind would be the following: check that the object plane (which is to be imaged) is really imaged by the system to the plane of observation by applying...
Question I have applied a RepTile "bump-type" Property to a surface in my TracePro model. Why are the bumps still below the surface of the object?
Question I am observing display issues in TracePro on my laptop. How can I fix this?
Question I recently downloaded a TracePro Ray File from an LED manufacturer, and when I insert the File Source into the TracePro model, the wavelengths are incorrect. How can this be corrected?
Question After running the raytrace for one model having one exit surface, I want to run a raytrace for another model where the light source is the output of the first model.
Question Are you moving away from FLEXlm licensing? Why? Who's licensing technology is associated with the new USB hardware key? We are currently using a virtual Windows systems for TracePro FLEXlm licensing, but our virtual server has no capability to read a USB device. Please advise on other...
Question I am debugging my model and ran into some questions about the orientation of polarization. Please explain the relationship between the Stokes Vector and the Global Coordinate System of the model. Synopsis Relationship between Stokes Vector and Global Coordinates Solution The Stokes Vectors...
Question 2 I am entering aspheric terms in the Insert Lens Element dialog, how are the parameters defined in the sag equation? Synopsis Aspheric Terms - Insert Lens dialog Solution The description of the terms in the sag equation is in the User's Manual (Lens Element section in Chapter 2) and Help...
Question When I attempt to download the TracePro Installer, I see the message "TracePro...Installer.exe is not commonly downloaded and could harm your computer". Is it OK to download? Synopsis TracePro...Installer.exe is not commonly downloaded and could harm your computer Solution This typically...
