Troubleshooting
This section provides many useful tips on how to solve common problems
while setting up or using the Dual Purpose Scope 2:
I can’t see an image. I only see a partial image.
•
Check to see if the power supply is plugged into an
electrical outlet or the battery is charged if using
cordless.
•
Check to see if the LED lights are turned on by switching
the power button on the back of the microscope, right or
left. A red indicator light should glow if the LED lights
are on.
•
Check to see if the objective lens is clicked into place.
•
Adjust the amount of light controlled by the dimmer
switch (rheostat). Turn clockwise to increase the intensity
of light and counterclockwise to decrease.
It is difficult to get an image to focus.
•
Adjust the coarse focus knobs slowly.
•
Check to see if the objective lens is clicked into place.
•
Check to see if there has been damage to the objective
lens/eyepiece. If the lens/eyepiece is dirty, use lens
paper and distilled water to rub gently clean.
NOTE:
Never rub the lens/eyepiece when it’s dry. This can cause static
charge that will attract dirt.
