The microscope OPTIGEM is a scientific precision instrument that has been developed especially
for professional gemmological use. It has been built to high optical and mechanical standards to
withstand many years of daily laboratory use.
The advanced illumination system, using combinations of transmitted, incident and dark field LED
illumination, allows a thorough and complete analysis of the surface of the object. The microscope
body and head can be rotated 360° and the stand can be inclined 90° to switch between vertical and
horizontal position which gives a large flexibility observation.
The stereoscopic head of the microscope is equipped with two separate optical systems that give an
excellent field depth to the image and is also fitted with a continuous zoom system with a span from
0.7x to 4.5x. The trinocular port of the head offers the possibility to attach a photo or video camera
in order to view and elaborate the microscope image on a TV or computer monitor.
Optika reminds you that this manual contains important information on safety and maintenance, and
that it must therefore be made accessible to the instrument users.
Optika declines any responsibility deriving from instrument uses that do not comply with this ma-
nual.
2.0 IntrodUctIon
The microscope is delivered assembled and ready for use. Remove it from the wooden case,
and place it on a solid table.
4.1 Illumination system
The OPTIGEM microscope comes with an integrated LED illumination system that consists
of three separate light sources:
• Incident illumination: through a flexible arm attached to the microscope stage.
• Transmitted illumination: from the hole of the microscope stage.
• Dark field illumination: a LED ring on the inside of the hole of the stage.
Before starting, read the section 6.3 about electrical safety precautions. Then, insert the power cord
into the microscope, the power adapter to the electrical net and switch on the instrument on the back
of the microscope.
Use the illumination selector knob to change between different illumination combinations and use
the brightness control to modify the light intensity.
The velvet dark field slider can be inserted, if needed, to increase the contrast of the dark field.
