For reasons of intensity, no filters
should be contained in the beam path.
•
Set the analyzer slider to optimum contrast
(maximum dimming) in the field of view via the
adjustment lever.
☞
If possible, this analyzer position should not be changed.

be inserted in the lower horizontal slider mount.
The color intensity can then be varied via the lever on the
λ
-sub compensator slider.
