BFP SYSTEM :
Quick Starting Guide
3. CONFIGURATION HARDWARE
3.1. LED Driver 'LEDD'
LED driver is the current source that will deliver current to the excitation LEDs. Excitations LEDs could
be integrated to the BFMC (most common configuration), or separated unit for more flexibility.
See LEDD user Manual for complete instructions on how it works, but basic information is to connect it
to the 12V AC/DC power supply, make sure to have the SD card key in place, and turn switch ON (1).
Connect the M8 cables between LED driver output to corresponding excitation LED.
3.2. Bundle imaging Fluorescence Mini Cube 'BFMC'
This is the central part of the BFP system. It contain set of dicrhroic mirrors and bandpass spectral
filters with optics to have uniform illumination on optical fibre port that is re-imaged to an image snesor.
In most common configuration the excitation LED are integrated within the BFMC. In such case, you
need to connect the M8 cable to LED driver. In another configuration where it is an external LED, there
is an optical fiber connector on excitation port and it is connected to LED source via an optical fibre
cable; ideally, 960 um core - NA0.63.
In most configuration, there is a CMOS camera included with the BFMC that is recognized with our
software, in such case, connect camera trigger cable (Hirose-to-BNC) between cameras and BFPD CAM
#1,2. In the configuration without camera, BFMC have C-Mount port where customer can install any
camera, but it will not be compatible with our software.
