External Light Source

You can attach the HG precentered fiber illuminator (for the episcopic illumination) or the supporting pillar for
dia-Illuminator 100W as an external light source.
CAUTION
• To use an external light source, carefully read the instruction manual and make sure to follow the
instructions.
• To assemble and connect parts, check that the power supplies for the light source and the product
are turned off and that the power cord is unplugged from the outlet.

C-HGFI/C-HGFIE HG Precentered Fiber Illuminator

WARNING
• An HG precentered fiber illuminator emits very strong light including ultraviolet light that is harmful to
the eyes and skin. Never turn on the power for the light source before completion of assembling and
connecting parts.
• To prevent a fire of flash
To attach the HG precentered fiber illuminator to the microscope with the LV-NU5A motorized
nosepiece mounted, be sure to use the motorized HG precentered fiber illuminator. Because it is
necessary to control the shutter according to the rotation of the motorized nosepiece, connect the
fiber illuminator and [HGFIE] connector on the microscope using the RS232C cross cable supplied
with the C-HGFIE. If you fail to make this connection, a fire of light may enter in the view-field at the
rotation of the motorized nosepiece.

1 If mounted, remove the LV-LH 50PC Lamphouse.
2 Fully loosen the fiber adapter clamp screw using
the hexagonal screwdriver.
3 Mount the fiber adapter onto the attaching part of
the LV-LH 50PC. Push the adapter into the limit
and fix it with the fiber clamp screw.
4 Insert the HG fiber tip through the hole of the fiber
adapter, and then tighten the fiber clamp screw to
fix the HG fiber using the hexagonal screwdriver.
5 Connect the HG fiber to the HG fiber port on the
fiber illuminator.
6 Screw the compensation filter supplied with the
fiber adapter into the compensation filter
attachment on the MA2-FL fluorescent unit.
This filter is designed for adjusting color balance
and brightness. If you fail to attach it to the
fluorescent unit, an extremely strong light enters
the view-field during the bright-field microscopy.
Be sure to attach it.
* For information about connecting the HG fiber,
refer to the instruction manual for the
C-HGFI/C-HGFIE HG Precentered Fiber
Illuminator.
