Getting Started FLUOVIEW
/Basic Operations
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

Page
(1) Fluorescence
mirror
unit
Select the fluorescence observation tube by rotating the turret.
•
Engage the desired cube in the light path for visual fluorescence observation.
•
For laser microscopy, rotate the turret to page tab
1
. (Set turret in the state that
mirror cube is entered.)
(2) Analyzer
IX2-MDICT
Polarizing plate for use in differential interference observation and polarized light
observation.
•
Rotate the cube turret to engage the IX2-MDICT analyzer into the light path for visual
transmitted light differential interference observation or transmitted polarized light
observation.
(3) Transmitted light DIC slider U-DICTS
This is a prism for use in differential interference observation.
•
Engage U-DICTS in the light path for laser differential interference observation or
visual transmitted light differential interference observation.
Leaving U-DICTS engaged during laser fluorescence observation will degrade image
quality somewhat. We recommend disengaging the U-DICTS from the light path
when simple laser fluorescence observation is required.
With transmitted light differential interference observation using an
immersion objective, set the microscope’s field diaphragm so that it
inscribes the field of view. Otherwise the contrast may degrade.
(This applies to both visual observation and laser differential
interference observation.)
