Function
For Full-Köhler stands, Light Manager, encoding function and sleeping mode are factory set up:
§
The Light Manager enables the microscope to remember the best illumination setting from
the previous use. When the microscope is set at the best illumination with objective A, light
intensity will be remembered. You can switch to objective B and adjust the illumination.
When you change back to objective A, light intensity will return to the last setting. The light
intensity of all five objectives can be remembered.
§
The Light Manager feature can be disabled by pushing the intensity knob for five seconds.
You will see that the Cyan LED Belt reduces its intensity from Max to Min, indicating that the
Light Manager is disabled. You can re-activate the Light Manager by the same process.
§
If you do not touch the microscope for 30 minutes it will go into ECO mode. The lowest layer
of the Cyan LED belt will "breathe" (blink slowly). Any movement of the nosepiece or the in-
tensity knob will re-activate the microscope.
§
The ECO mode can be disabled by triple clicking the intensity knob (for example in case of
long time video shooting). You will see the Cyan LED belt illuminating once as a sign. Triple
clicking the intensity knob again will reactivate ECO mode.
