Axiostar plus Switching on the instrument Carl Zeiss

3 OPERATION
3.1 Switching on the instrument
• Switch on the instrument via the On/Off
switch (3-1/1).
• The green LED integrated in the on/off
switch lights up to indicate that the
instrument is ready for operation (switch in
"I" position). The integrated 6 V 20 W long-
life halogen lamp must also be on.
☞
The Axiostar plus microscope is supplied with
factory-aligned illumination. The illumination
need not be adjusted even when the lamp is
exchanged by the customer.
• Set the required brightness via the
brightness control (3-1/2).
• Depending on the application, place one or
several of the following dia. 32 filters
(3-2/2) on the dust-protection glass of the
luminous-field diaphragm (3-2/1) , e.g.
– Interference wide-band filter, green, 32 x 4,
for contrast enhancement in b/w
photography of stained sections and for
phase contrast.
– CB 3 conversion filter, d = 32 x 2, to
generate the correct color temperature of
3200 K when artificial light color reversal
film is used.
– CB 3, d = 32 x 2, and CB 12, d = 32 x 2,
conversion filters for use with daylight color
film.
• If necessary, use the filter clamp (3-2/3) to
secure the filter.
When the LED illuminator is used instead of a
condenser, it must be switched on via the
toggle switch, and the illumination intensity
must be set via the control. Setting Köhler
illumination is not required on account of the
homogeneous field illumination up to diameter
20 mm. Only when objective 2.5x is used, it
may be necessary to center the LED illuminator
and to slightly lower the condenser carrier.
