4. Filter cubes for fluorescence observation (for the LV-UEPI2 only)
The LV-UEPI2 accommodates two filter cubes for epi-fluorescence microscopy.
1 Verify that the illumination shutter is closed and
the power supplies to the microscope and light
source are off.
2 Remove the cover from the left side of the
illuminator.
3 Turn the microscopy selection knob so that the
position indication "FL1" or "FL2" on the turret
in the illuminator faces the opening.
4 Insert the desired filter cube into the dovetail of the
turret and push it in to the clickstop position.
Make sure that the filter cube has its excitation
filter facing out.
5 Now that the filter cube is installed in the position
FL1 or FL2, refit the cover.
6 Check the stickers of excitation method supplied
with the illuminator and find the one that
corresponds to the filter cube just installed. Affix it
to the position FL1 or FL2 on the microscopy
selection knob.
If there is no sticker corresponding to the
excitation method of the filter cube, write the
excitation method in a blank sticker and affix it.
