Nominal laser power will be available within a few seconds. Operation at nominal power and
the specified laser lifetime can only be warranted if the power selection potentiometer
(Fig. 4-5/
2
) is in a position approximately 12 hours. The green LED (Fig. 4-5/
4
) will light in this
case. For operation at a lower power setting, the potentiometer can be rotated anticlockwise. If
operated with a power setting above nominal level (potentiometer in a position greater than 12
hours), the laser’s lifetime will be reduced. The red LED will light (Fig. 4-5/
5
).
If the safety device is found to function in a non-conforming manner, you should shut the
system down, clearly mark it as defective and contact the Service Department of Carl Zeiss
MicroImaging GmbH immediately.
