reduces the magnification. This is
done to give an image size that is
almost similar to the field of view
when looking through the eyepie-

11.12.26 CCD adapter 1x

An adapter that is used with a video
camera with a C or a CS-mount.
Mounted in the trinocular tube of
the microscope. The adapter has
no built-in optics and field of view is
therefore smaller than that of the
0.4x CCD adapter. It is used with
the Moticam 1000 to avoid vignet-
ting (a round image).

11.08.80 Heating stage:

The heating stage can be mounted
in two ways; with double adhesive
tape or removable with clamp
screws. In both cases the stage clip
must be dismantled, which is done
be simply unscrewing the two sil-

ver-coloured vertically mounted
clamp screws. When using it with
the removable mounting, the two
clamp screws are used in two of
the holes. The two slide hol 

-

ders/clips must be turned a bit so
that they point in a v-shape. This
must be done to allow the objecti-
ves to swing freely without touching
them. It might be necessary to loo-
sen the two screws a bit, before
they can be moved.

Extra adjustment of the height
of the condenser:

When using the largest objectives
and the heating stage it can be
necessary to have the condenser
move higher than the factory set-
tings. 

This is done by adjusting two small
screws. The first screw to be loose-
ned is positioned on the right side
of the (black) condenser holder. It is

a small silver-coloured screw with a
slotted screw and a diameter of 2.5
mm. It is then possible to loosen
the long thin stop screw (length
approximately 25 mm) that is
mounted vertically upside-down
(on the underside of the condenser
holder). This screw controls the
height of the condenser. When it is
adjusted a bit, it is now possible to
raise the condenser. 

It must however be noted that the
condenser now is sticking up, and
this means that the lateral move-
ments of the heating stage is fixed.
It is therefore necessary to move
the slide with the fingers, ff it has to
be moved more than 5 mm from
side to side. The condenser can
also be lowered a bit to give extra
range for the lateral movement. 

The use of the phase equipment is
described in its own manual.
