Changing the filter
The illuminator and the filter wheel can
be controlled using the Leica Smart-
Touch™. The filters are encoded so that the label
always corresponds to the actual inserted filter.
An empty filter insert is indicated by a line ( - ).
When using a Leica M165 FC stereomicro-
scope, you cannot change the filter and
shutter using the Leica SmartTouch™. However,
the type and position of the filter is detected
and displayed on the Leica SmartTouch™.
1. Touch the desired filter to swing it into the
beam path.
