Page 16: Diopter Adjustment Of Assistant Observer
When the eyepiece is not equipped with the eyepiece micrometer Rotate the pointer brightness control knob c of the discussion attachment in the clockwise direction to turn ON the pointer ( ). Set the pointer color switching lever d to the Down position (G). At this time, if the pointer cannot be observed in the field of view, move the pointer to the center of the field of view using the pointer control lever e . -
Page 17: Pointer Operation
3-3 Pointer operation Adjusting the pointer brightness The brightness adjustment range for the pointer of this product is set to support a dark specimen (e.g. specimen for fluorescence observation). For this reason, when observing a bright specimen (e.g. specimen for brightfield observation), you may feel it difficult to identify the pointer unless rotating the brightness control knob to the maximum, but this is not a failure of this product. -
