•
Remove one eyepiece from the tube and replace it with a centering telescope.
•
A diagonal black line (3-21/
2
) of the DIC slider
becomes visible in observation of the field of
view using the centering telescope.
•

•
Move the DIC-suitable objective in the objective
slider in the work position via the pushrod
(3-22/
2
).
•
Swing in the DIC analyzer module on the
reflector turret (3-22/
1
).
•
Swing in the suitable DIC prism I, II or III (digit
on condenser turret disk).
☞
The universal condenser must not be equipped with DIC prisms which are integrated together
with polarization filters.
•
Move SENARMONT polarizer (3-22/
4
) (polarizer and
λ
/4 plate) into click-stop position.
•
Set luminous-field diaphragm and aperture diaphragm (3-22/
3
) in accordance with the KÖHLER rules.
•
In SENARMONT-DIC, optimum contrast is set by turning the polarizer via pushrod (3-22/
5
) in the
lower part of the SENARMONT polarizer. The
λ
/4-plate positioned above must always be swung in if
SENARMONT contrasting is to be successful. If the DIC slider is correctly positioned in the center,
darkness is created in the click-stop position of the SENARMONT polarizer, i.e. the path difference is
0 nm in this position.
