In Smart Setup you configure channels. Select the fluorescent dyes and/or contrast methods that you want to include from a large dye database. Smart Setup takes the configuration of your microscope hardware and the properties of the selected dyes into account. Based on this information, it makes one or more suggestions for acquisition.

Note that Smart Setup tries to configure the components of your system for the acquisition of multi-channel images.

To open Smart Setup, select Free Mode > 2D Multi-Channel Acquisition workbench > Channels tool > Open Smart Setup. You can also open it in Job Mode.
