Changing the Filter Modules in the BiG.2
You can remove and replace filter modules by push and click.
When opening the filter insert, the safety control will switch off the laser light.
Using a P&C filter module with a long pass dichroic projects the longer wavelength range of the
emission spectrum to channel 2 and the shorter range of the emission spectrum to channel 1.
Alterations of filters can be indicated to the software as described in the operating manual.
To exchange the filter module of the BiG.2 proceed as follows:
•
Loosen the two knurled screws (Fig. 22/
2
).
•
Remove the filter insert (Fig. 22/
3
) of the BiG.2 (Fig. 22/
1
) and put it down.
How to uninstall a module:
•
Disengage the filter module (Fig. 23/
4
) from the left spring clips (Fig. 23/
2
) of the filter insert
1
) by tilting it forward, then lift it off the right spring clips (Fig. 23/
3
) and remove the module.
How to install a module:
•
Insert the filter module with the aid of its mounting elements on its lower and upper sight (
4
)
into the right spring clips (
3
) on the filter insert.
•
Press the filter module against the left spring clips (
2
) until it engages firmly.
•
After exchanging the filter module, replace the filter insert (Fig. 22/
3
) into the BiG.2 (Fig. 22/
1
).
•
Fasten the two knurled screws (Fig. 22/
2
).
