4. Filter cubes
The filter cube turret of the LV-UEPI2A can accommodate two optical components such as filter
cubes for the epi-fl microscopy or PA blocks (LV-PAB).
CAUTION
1 Plug the power cord and turn on the product.
(See Pages 34 and 98.)
2 When the light source (the lamp house or the
optical fiber light source) is attached to the
microscope, turn off the light source. And if
possible, turn off the power for the light source.
3 Remove the cover on the left side of the LV-
UEPI2A.
4 Check the position indicator of the filter cube
turret in the LV-UEPI2A. Operate the CUBE
switch so that the "FL1" position or the "FL2"
position is placed at the opening.
* To use a PA block (LV-PAB), attach it to the
"FL1" position.
5 Insert the desired filter cube along the dovetail of
the filter cube turret and push it to the click-stop
position.
Make sure that the filter cube is inserted so that the
excitation light filter faces out.
6 Repeat Steps 4 and 5 to attach the desired filter
cubes to FL1 and FL2.
7 Put the cover back to its original position.
8 Check the stickers of excitation method supplied
with the illuminator and find the corresponding
stickers to the filter cubes just attached. Affix them
to the "FL1" position and the "FL2" position on
the microscopy method indicator.
If you cannot find the corresponding stickers, write
the excitation methods on blank stickers and affix
them.

To attach the filter cubes, the product must be turned on with the LV-UEPI2A
attached. So, this step must be performed after the assembly of the microscope.
