The procedures described on the episcopic illumination in 2.1 to 2.5 are based on use of the light source of
the MA200 main body with the LV-LH50PC Lamphouse attached. When using an external light source to
perform the microscopy, follow the notes below.
• The procedure on how to turn the power switch to ON: Turn on the power switch on the external device
in advance, then turn on the MA200 main body.
• Setting the Internal/External brightness control changeover switch of the MA200 main body: Sets to ON
(external mode).
• Adjusting the brightness of the light source: Adjusts the brightness on the external light source.
• To perform the epi-fl microscopy using the C-HGFI/C-HGFIE HG Precentered Fiber Illuminator as the
external light source, screw the compensation filter supplied with the fiber adapter into the MA2-FL
fluorescent unit. (Refer to 4.15.1.)
