2.3 Accessories
The Kuro is compatible with many optional accessories. This section provides
information about compatibility.
2.3.1 Microscopes, Lenses, and Tripods
The Kuro camera includes a standard threaded video mount and can be mounted to any
microscope that accepts a standard C-mount adapter.
The Kuro camera accepts any lens that is compatible with a standard threaded video
mount as long as its optics do not extend behind the flange of the lens.
The Kuro camera can be mounted to optical tables, tripods, and copy stands using the
eight ¼-20 threaded attachment points located near the camera front and rear on all
sides.
2.4 Unpack the System
All required items should be included with the shipment. The Kuro system has been
manufactured according to the camera options specified at the time of purchase,
including the CCD window and coatings that were ordered.
When unpacking the system, examine the system components for any signs of shipping
damage. If there are any, notify Teledyne Princeton Instruments immediately and file a
claim with the carrier. Be sure to save the shipping carton for inspection by the carrier.
If damage is not apparent but system specifications cannot be achieved, internal
damage may have occurred in shipment.
Retain all original packing materials so that the Kuro system can be easily and safely
packaged and shipped to another location or returned for service if necessary. If
assistance is required at any time, contact Teledyne Princeton Instruments Customer
Support. Refer to
