Assembling
Before starting to assemble the DXM1200F system, read and observe the “Safety Precautions”
provided earlier in this manual.
[Installation locations]
•
Avoid bright room lighting and direct sunlight. Bright ambient light makes it difficult to
obtain clear images from the microscope.
•
Avoid dusty locations.
•
Avoid subjecting the product to vibration. The surface must be level. The DXM1200F is
extremely sensitive to vibration. Vibrations during image capture may result in images of
poor quality.
•
Avoid high temperatures and humidity. Mildew or condensation on the lens will result in
deteriorated performance or malfunction.
[Required tools]
Screwdriver, allen wrench (supplied with the microscope)
