IV. Operation
Interlock control
The light quantity and the aperture diaphragm opening changes differently depending on the
interlock control setting, Default mode or Optional mode, as described below:
•
Default mode
The light quantity is set to the predetermined value. The aperture diaphragm for the epi-
illumination is automatically adjusted to 75% of the numerical aperture of the objective.
•
Optional mode
The light quantity and the aperture diaphragm for the epi-illumination are set to form a diameter
and a value that has been set with “LVSetup.”
Use “LVSetup” of “LV Series Support Tools” to set the interlock control. For detail information,
see “LV Series Support Tools software manual.”
Modification from the registered condition (User offset)
When the light quantity or the aperture diaphragm for the episcopic illumination is modified from
the registered condition, the indicator on the operation panel starts blinking, indicating that it is not
in the registered condition. This modification is referred to as “User offset” hereafter.
The condition of “User offset” is registered in the memory of this product: therefore, the post-
modified condition is restored when the registered combination of the microscopy and the objective
is selected, even after another microscopy or objective is selected or the power is turned off.
To clear “User offset”
To clear the “User offset” and to return to the registered
conditions, hold down the EPI button and DIA button for
two seconds or longer. When the registered conditions are
restored, a short beep sounds and the button indicator turns
on.
CAUTION
Even if the interlock control mode is changed, the user offset settings are kept.
Therefore, if the interlock control mode is changed with “LVSetup” under conditions
of user offset, the microscope system condition may differ from user intension. To
change the interlock control mode, perform the following if necessary and reset the
user offset settings beforehand.
For information to change the interlock control mode, refer to the “LV Series Support
Tools software manual.”
To clear “User offset”
Hold down both buttons
for 2 seconds or more.
