Eyepiece shutter
Always use the eyepiece shutter when using this system.
Failure to do so may result in exposure of the eye to laser beam emitted
from the eyepiece, resulting in injury.
The shutter module is provided to block the
laser beam from the binocular eyepiece.
The interlock mechanism of the module
blocks the optical path to the binocular
eyepiece during TIRF observation, while the
mechanism closes the shutter in the laser
unit during normal observation (observation
using eyepieces) so that the laser beam is
not guided into the TIRF2 attachment.
An illumination pillar switch to be mounted
on the microscope's illumination pillar is
supplied with the eyepiece shutter.
However, ignore this switch as this switch's
function is not required to operate this
system.
WARNING
Set the dial to "Confocal" for TIRF
observation. (Eyepiece shutter close)
Set the dial to "Bino" for normal
observation. (Eyepiece shutter open)
