Bring an arbitrary objective into the optical path.
Press the [NOSEPIECE] button on the DS-L4 screen to open the
sub screen. Select the desired objective.
When using an oil immersion type objective, apply immersion oil
between the specimen and the objective.
Configuring the rotation of the motorized
nosepiece
The following settings can be configured for the rotation
of the nosepiece.
 Disabling nosepiece rotation when the elevating section is
positioned higher than the specified position (See Chapter
6, "5.3 Disabling the Rotation of the Motorized Nosepiece
Depending on the Position of the Elevating Section")
 Disabling the switching to higher magnification objective
(nosepiece address 1→6 or 1→7) (See Chapter 6, "5.4
Disabling the Reverse Rotation of the Nosepiece")
Interlocking operations with the switching of
objectives
The following operations can be configured to be
automatically performed when the nosepiece is rotated to
switch the objective.
 Retraction of the Ni-E microscope's elevating section and
its restoration after switching of the objective that follows
 Aperture diaphragm adjustment on the motorized
universal condenser
 DIA field diaphragm adjustment on the Ni-E microscope
main body
 ND filter transmittance adjustment on the motorized ND
filter wheel
 Switching of the module in the motorized universal
condenser
 Switching of Ni-E microscope's elevating section
movement speed
 Switching of motorized XY stage movement speed
 Correction of the focal position
For details, refer to Chapter 6, "5.1.1 Configuring the
Interlocked Operation with Switching of Objectives",
"5.1.3 Automatically Switching the Movement Speed of
the Microscope's Elevating Section and Motorized Stage",
and "5.1.4 Configuring the Parfocal Correction Function
(Auto Link Focus)".
When the aperture diaphragm, field diaphragm, and ND
filter configurations are made to [75%], [100%], and
[NORMAL], relevant adjustment steps described in the
following procedure can be omitted.
Toggle function
Use the toggle function for easy switching between two
objectives. For details, refer to Chapter 6, "5.5
