4.7.1
Light Manager Mode: OFF
If the Light Manager is (temporarily) switched off, the microscope behaves like a classical light
microscope.
Strating from a selected magnification and a corresponding lamp voltage, the operator must readjust the
latter manually to get a comparable impression of image brightness when setting higher or lower
magnifications.
However, as the color temperature of the halogen lamp varies with lamp voltage, the operator would
have to use neutral-density filters additionally to achieve a comparable impressionof the specimen.
4.7.2
Light Manager Mode: CLASSIC
If the Light Manager is operated in CLASSIC mode, the operator can choose his own "optimal"
illumination settings for every magnification.
The corresponding values are automatically stored in the temporary memory of the Light Manager when
changing the objective.
If you want to keep the settings saved even beyond the switch-off of the microscope, you must once
push the
LM-Set
button on the back right of the stand after. After a confirmation beep, all available
values will be stored. After a second beep approximately three seconds later, you can switch off the
microscope.
