Attaching the LED Illuminator
Attach the LED illuminator as a complete assembly
and replace it as a complete assembly when its
service life has ended.
•
Insert the illuminator (Fig. 3-15/
1
) with its
contact pins into the slot (Fig. 3-15/
2
) on the
carrier, as far as it will go.
•
Fasten the illuminator to the carrier with two
screws (Fig. 3-15/
4
).
Be sure to screw the illuminator on
firmly for a long service life.
If you employ the LED illuminator for
transmitted light illumination, you
should place the conversion filter in
the slider (Fig. 3-15/
3
) of the carrier
for reflected light. This will create the
usual daylight impression during the
microscoping process. Without that
filter, the image may appear slightly
bluish on occasion.
In order to avoid veiling glare during FL viewing, be sure to fit the supplied shutter plate in
the second position of the slider in the carrier to block the light path temporarily.
Last Checking Step:
Insert the three-pin plug of the transmitted light illuminator into the connector socket
located at the back of the stand (or into the jacks marked TL on the Axio Vert.A1 MAT) and
switch the halogen lamp on.

Attaching Illuminators for Reflected Light
The Axio Vert.A1 FL-LED stand comes with a fixed-mounted reflected light LED fluorescence illumination
provided with four mounts for LED modules, which may be utilized at the user's option. The LED modules
are interchangeable. They can be put together and installed individually by the user. See Section 3.3.7.
At the back, the Axio Vert.A1 FL and the Axio Vert.A1 MAT feature a port for the installation of reflected
light illuminators. The various stands allow such illuminators as the HBO 50, HBO 100 or HXP 120C to be
used for reflected light fluorescence and the VIS-LED attachment lamp or the HAL 100 illuminator to be
utilized for material applications.
