Installing the Filter
Systems include a 50mm sq Ethidium Bromide (EtBr) filter. To install the filter in the Gel Imager darkroom:
Carefully remove the filter from the protective
plastic case, holding the filter at the edges to
prevent fingerprints.
The filter tray is located under the camera
bracket on the right side top of the darkroom.
Slide the tray open.
Place the filter inside the filter tray so that the
text on the edge of the filter is positioned so
the letters are right side up when facing you.
Additional filters are available. Refer to Accessories for ordering information.
Camera Set-up
The camera and zoom lens are assembled at the
factory.
Note: The zoon lens shipped may appear
different than the one pictured at right.
Remove the cap from the lens.
Attach the step up ring and diopter to the
lens. The step up ring and diopter will only
fit one way.
Using the four thumb screws provided,
secure the bracket to the base.
Slide the camera and lens assembly into the
camera bracket. Slide the lens through the
center hole in the gasket. The gasket forms
a seal around the lens.
