Removing a Filter Cube
Do not open the access door on the front of the instrument during
operation.
Doing so may affect measurements.
1. Lift up the hinged door on the front of the reader.
2. Grasp the filter cube and slide it to the right to remove it from its chamber.
Installing a Filter Cube
1. Ensure that all filters, plugs, and mirrors are inserted properly in the filter cube (see
Figure 4-2 and Figure 4-3 ).
2. Open the front access door and locate the filter cube chamber.
3. With the filter cube properly oriented (the non-labeled side entering the chamber),
gently slide the cube into the chamber. You will feel a magnet engage the cube. See
the photos on the next page.
