Operation

SD card (not included in delivery)
If you want to store photos or videos with your micro-
scope, you need an SD card up to 32 GB.
Insert the card into the slot (Fig. 1, 12) until it clicks into
place. You can also do this when the device is switched on.
To remove it, press the SD card until you hear a clicking
sound. Now you can easily pull it out.
If the shutter button is pressed when the SD card is not
inserted, an error message appears: „No card".
General/location
Select a suitable location before starting to set up your
microscope. First make sure that your microscope is stand-
ing on a stable, vibration-free surface. In order to put the
microscope into operation, the power supply provided must
be connected to the microscope (Fig. 1, image 7/11) and a
230 V plug socket. The appropriate illumination is switched
on using the switch (Fig. 1, image 20/21), and the brightness
is controlled for optimum illumination of the specimen by
turning the selection wheel. (For safety reasons, please only
use the power supply provided. Other power supplies may
not meet the required technical specifications. Damage to
the device caused by other power supplies is not covered
by the guarantee.)
Electric LED illumination with dimmer
Transmitted light illumination (Fig. 1, image 6) is used for
transparent specimens (specimens on microscope slides).
Select incident light illumination (Fig. 1, 15) to observe
opaque objects. The simultaneous use of transmitted and
incident light illumination is only advisable with semi-trans-
parent objects. This mode is not recommended for trans-
mitted light objects on slides since too much light may be
reflected on the slide.
Colour filter wheel
The colour filter wheel (Fig. 1, image 8) beneath the micro-
scope table can be used to influence the image quality
when observing transparent specimens. Fine details are
displayed better depending on the colour and object. A
coloured lower light in combination with a white upper light
can also optimise image details when observing objects
under incident light (e.g. transparent objects).
Observation
Turn the nosepiece (Fig. 1, 3) to select the 4x objective for
observing objects. Depending on the object, select upper or
lower lighting for optimum illumination.
To do this, place a permanent specimen directly under the
objective on the microscope stage (Fig. 1, 5) by clamping
it into the cross stage (Fig. 1, 16). To do this, first press
the lever for the clamp holder (Fig. 1, 17) to the side,
place the permanent specimen on the cross table and
let the clamp holder carefully return to the permanent
specimen. The object to be observed must lie exactly
above/below the illumination. To achieve this, there are
two knurled screws on the cross table, the so-called cross
table drives (Fig. 1, 18 and 19). By turning these screws
it is possible to position the object exactly, to the right
or left (Fig. 1, 18) and to the front or back (Fig. 1, 19).
To focus the specimen, first turn the coarse focusing knob
(Fig. 1, 10 / inner knob). Precise focusing is achieved with
the fine focusing (Fig. 1, 10 / outer rotary knob).
To change the magnification, turn the nosepiece (Fig. 1, 3)
onto the 10x objective. Now focus the image with the fine
focus only. For the 40x objective, proceed in the same way
as for the 10x objective.
The dimmers (Fig. 1, 20 and 21) can be used to optimally
adjust the contrast and quality of the image of the object
under observation.
Turn the nosepiece (Fig. 1, image 3) to switch objectives if
increased magnification is desired. Incidentally: The higher
the level of magnification, the more light is required for
good image quality.
Incident light illumination is optimised for the 4x objective.
The specimen is generally no longer fully illuminated if the
10x or 40x objective is used.
Digital zoom (up to 4x)
The screen magnification can be increased to a maximum
of 4x by „stretching" with two fingers. By „pushing togeth-
er" the image can be reduced back to its original size.
Hide/show on-screen menu
By pressing on a free area of the screen, the menu can be
shown or hidden.
Connection to a PC/Laptop
You can transfer images and videos stored on an SD card
to a PC/laptop.
To do this, put the microscope into operation. Then plug the
USB cable supplied into the USB socket of the microscope
(Fig. 1, 13) and into a free socket on the PC/laptop.
The message „Connecting" appears on the screen. If it goes
out, you can access the SD. The microscope is now recog-
nized as a mass storage device.
Log off the microscope properly to exit. Pull out the USB
