Portable multiple sockets may not be used. Cables are to be laid such that there is no risk of
tripping, or they are to be covered.
Never disconnect the power cable while the device is in use. Use the power switch to turn the
devices off.
To ensure proper function of the DirectFRAP imaging system, it should be subjected to an
annual safety inspection. The safety checks must be carried out by an authorized Carl Zeiss
service technician. All national safety checks should be carried out.
Health and safety protection regulations should be observed when handling the HXP 120 V
UV radiation source. Relevant national laws should also be complied with.
−
Follow the operating manual for the HXP 120V illumination unit provided by the
manufacturer.
−
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for changing the lamp. Otherwise lamp changes
carry a risk of burns or explosion.
−
Users should not expose themselves to the UV radiation of the HXP 120 V illumination
unit.
−
Never look directly into the optical waveguide when the HXP 120 V illumination unit is
turned on. Non-observance carries the risk of irreversible damage to the eye.
In order to prevent vibrations during operation, the DirectFRAP imaging system should be used
in connection with the Axio Observer anti-vibration plate.

Notes on Computer and Software
Laser manipulation requires that a monitor is attached to the system. That means that you need a PC
with a monitor connected to it.
Additionally, a software program for the digital camera, for image recording and image display on the
monitor must be installed on the control PC.
