Attach the damped DP14A(/M) Ø1.5" mounting post to the breadboard using the mounting
holes in its base and four 1/4"-20, 3/4" long (M6 x 20 mm) cap screws. Choose the position
shown in Figure 10. In the following procedure, the individual parts of the microscope must
be built before the microscope system can be created.
Dichroic Mirror
The DMSP605R shortpass dichroic mirror has to be installed in the CM1-DCH(/M)
housing. To do so, remove the small black screws on the side of the housing with the
included hex key and pull off the top of the housing.
Next, install the DMSP605R dichroic mirror such that the part number engraving is in the
upper left corner, see Figure 19. For doing so, push the slides marked with the blue arrows
in Figure 19. Place the housing back on and fix it with the previously removed screws.
Make sure the orientation of dichroic mirror and housing match Figure 19.
Finally, screw in four ER05 at the top and four ER1.5 at the bottom; see Figure 21. Remove
the cage rods’ setscrews that are pointing away from the beamsplitter cube. Attach an
SM1CP2 end cap to the left side of the CM1-DCH(/M) cube.
