2 – LSM 880 Training Guide 

Power ON Routine 

 

 

 

 

 

 
 

1 

Turn ON ‘Main Switch’ from the 

remote control paddle. 

2 

Turn ON both ‘Systems/PC’ and 

‘Components’ switches. 

By default, the ‘Lasers’ key located 
on the side of the remote paddle 

should always be in the ‘ON’ state, 

but please verify. 

 

3 

Turn ON HXP-120V epi-fluorescence 

light source. 

This light source is required for 
visualizing fluorescence via the 

microscope eyepieces.
