Setting Up The Main Unit - Olimpus IPLEX RT Operation Manual

Setting up the main unit

The main unit can be used in any one of the three setup configurations shown below.
Use the handle as a stand
CAUTION
• Place the main unit on a level surface so it is stable. The main unit can tip over if it is not stable.
• Do not place the main unit in overhead location. Doing so may result in the main unit falling and being dam-
aged.
• When suspending the base unit while using it, hook the handle someplace that can support its weight and
where there is no danger of it falling.
• Setup the tripod on level ground. Setting the tripod up on a slope or uneven ground is dangerous because it
may fall over.
Mounting of the control unit on the main unit
The control unit can be attached to the main unit as
desired. It can be attached to the main unit for carrying
and left attached to the main unit during observation.
Insert the hanger on the side of the control unit straight into the
control unit holder on the side or the back of the main unit.
The hanger may not fit correctly at an angle into the control unit
holder, be sure to put it straight into the control unit holder.
CAUTION
• Hold the handle of the main unit when transporting the main
unit with the control unit affixed to the back. The main unit
may fall or the excessive force to the main unit may damage
connections if you lift it by the control unit.
