Shutter Control Unit - Nikon TIRF Instructions Manual

6

Shutter control unit

This unit is designed to open or close the motorized shutter housed within each laser unit. Although
the unit can open or close up to three channels of motorized shutters, for safety reasons, operation of
motorized shutters is conducted through mutually exclusive control, as a result of which only one
shutter can be opened at a time.
Connect the cables of the AC adapter, the eyepiece shutter, and the laser unit at the locations shown
in the figure.
To prevent malfunctions, always turn off the system power before attaching or detaching any of
the cables.
