Individual Operations

This chapter individually describes the procedures for using DS-L4 to operate the motorized devices of your microscope.
The screen contents will differ depending on the configuration and settings of your microscope.
The screen will only show devices that are connected to the microscope and recognized by DS-L4. For this
reason, the composition of the screen will differ depending on the configuration of your microscope. For
information on microscopes and devices that can be recognized by DS-L4, refer to Chapter 1, "Motorized Units
Operable from DS-L4".
The button layout on the [MICROSCOPE CONTROL] and [MIC EASY] screens can be customized. For details
