8.4 Single step and
continuous rotation
To change or check the light intensity setting of the second LED unit this must
first be selected using the unit selector key (1).
If the MC 1500 is being controlled via a computer then the intensity of each
individual LED unit can be specified to the exact percentage.
In brightness range 5 the selected LED unit is in overdrive mode: maximum light
intensity of LEDs is reached!
The MC 1500 makes it possible to turn the segment setting of all VisiLED
illuminations step by step or also to put them into permanent rotation. If two
VisiLED units are connected to a MC 1500 then it is possible to synchronously
rotate both illuminations: the mixed light characteristics remains constant
when rotating around the specimen under observation.
The rotation mode increases the impression of three-dimensionality with
structured microscope objects, especially when viewed with a monitor.
Short tapping of the rotation key (6) turns the segment setting of the selected
illumination unit (A or B) step by step by a 1/8 circle. If the key is pressed for
longer (> 2 seconds) the permanent rotation of the actual segment mode for
this LED unit is activated/deactivated.
To be able to turn or rotate the light of the second VisiLED unit this must first
be selected using the unit selector key (1).
The synchronized turning of the illumination of both units (A and B) is
achieved by pressing down key (10) at the same time as key (6). If this key
combination is held down for longer than 2 seconds the permanent synchro-
nized rotation of the mixed light is activated or deactivated.
When the MC 1500 is controlled via the computer it is also possible to specify
the direction and exact speed of the rotation.
