3)
Open the filter slider on the illuminator so that the light travels through the
system. Engage the field iris diaphragm all the way open. Engage the
fluorescence filter selector wheel into a position where the plastic specimen
fluoresces. If the FOV is too bright to look at, use a different specimen that is less
affected, what is important is that the specimen is consistent or even across the
FOV.
4)
While looking into the eyetubes, reach to the centering controls on the
lamphouse and adjust both the X and the Y controls to achieve the brightest spot
in the center of the FOV or field of view.
5)
While still looking into the eyetubes, turn the knob on the lamphouse
which controls the focus of the collector lens assembly. Notice when you turn the
knob, that the light spreads outward and inward. Leave the knob in a position in
which the light is as even across the FOV as can be made at this point.
6)
While continuing to look into the eyetubes, reach to the centering controls
on the integrated concave mirror. Adjust the concave mirror controls in such a
way as to reflect the arc back into itself further homogenizing the light in the FOV.
