“Brightness” and “Color” are two main categories of the settings within the ZEISS Connect App. Specific settings can be
saved for each illumination mode. After changing any settings, you can save the illumination mode in order to reuse the
new parameters next time.

Light Intensity
The front face of the OPMI features 5 white LED indicators arranged in an arc
above the Mode Control knob. These LEDs are designed to roughly indicate the
set intensity level of the illumination under the corresponding mode. Note that the
illumination intensity of each mode can be set independently and will be automatically
remembered by the microscope even after it is powered off.
