3.2.1 Axioskop 2 FS plus, manual
The Axioskop 2 FS plus microscope does not have any on/off switches for the illumination equipment on
the stand itself. The illumination systems need only be switched on/off as required via the power supply
unit.
Normally, the separate power unit for the transmitted-light illumination is switched on first, and the
HBO 100 W transformer for the incident-light illumination is additionally switched on only if the epi-
fluorescence technique is actually applied.(see page 3-30).
•
Switch on the separate 12 V DC 100 W power unit for transmitted-light illumination via the on/off
switch (3-1/
23 ) on the instrument front.
•
Use the light intensity control (3-1/ 24 ) to set the required brightness. The scale on the control
(3-1/ 24 ) indicates the existing lamp voltage of the transmitted-light halogen illuminator.
3.2.2 Axioskop 2 FS
MOT
In addition to the voltage supply instruments for the illumination systems, the Axioskop 2 FS
MOT
also
requires the control unit for the motorized focusing drive to be switched on.
•
Switch on the control unit via the on/off switch
(3-15/
1 ) on the instrument front.
When the control unit has been switched on, an
internal system check is performed. Various data
and test procedures are shown on the display.
The control unit is ready for operation after
approx. 15 seconds. The display shows the set
step width and the position value of the objective
slider with reference to the set zero position.
