® TV Camera (option)
Refer to the instruction manual of your TV
camera on its operation or on how to connect it to
a power supply.
Mount the TV camera to the side port. A TV
camera can be mounted to the side port in three
different ways depending on the type of a
projection Jense to be used.
• Use of a lx relay lens
• Detach the cap from the side port tube.
Insert the relay lens into the side port tube.
Push this Jens into the side port tube until it
reaches the limit. Tighten the projection
Jens fixing screw with the hexagonal
screwdriver.
• Attach the C-mount or the ENG-mount
adapter to the TV camera. Insert the TV -
camera-attached adapter into the side port
tube. Confirm that it reaches the limit in
this tube. Tighten the photomicrographic
attachment/fV clamp screw.
• Use of a TV relay lens (0.45x, 0.6x or zoom)
• Attach a zoom-mount adapter (for the
C-mount or the ENG-mount) to the end of
the zoom lens with the hexagonal
screwdriver.
• Attach the TV camera to the zoom lens.
Insert the TV camera-attached zoom lens
into the side port tube. Confirm that it
reaches the limit in this tube, and tighten
the photomicrographic attachment/fV
clamp screw.
• Use of the direct C-mount adapter
• Use the hexagonal screwdriver to loosen the
two side port tube clamp screws at the base
of the side port. Pull out the side port tube.
• Insert the direct C-mount adapter into the
side port. Tighten the above two screws
with the hexagonal screwdriver to fix this
adapter.

Use of 12V-50W halogen lamp
( CAUTIONS)
• Use 12V-50W halogen lamps (specified in
'Electrical Specifications' on page 72) and
the Nikon 12V-50W lamphouse for U-epi
10.
• Wait until the lamp and the lamphouse cool
down sufficiently before replacing the
lamp.
• Tum off the power switch and unplug the
power connector before replacing the lamp.
This avoids electrical shocks or damage to
the microscope.
• Do not touch with bare hands the glass
surface of the lamp to be mounted. Dirt or
fingerprints on the lamp surface may
degrade the illuminating capacity of the
lamp. If dirt or fingerprints are left on the
surface, wipe them off and keep the lamp
always clean.
• Lamphouse Adapter
Insert the lamphouse adapter into the sleeve in
the back of the microscope. Three cross­
recessed screws are supplied with the adapter.
Insert two of them into the two upper screw
holes in the adapter. Tighten these two screws
with a screwdriver. (The two tightened
screws provide the adapter with enough
strength without the third screw tightened in
the screw hole in the lower part of the
adapter.)
