channels. The lever will click into place for each of the
following positions:
Position (closest to front)
Position (second from front)
Position (second position from back)
Position (furthest position to the back)
Note: The channel indicator bar across the top of the
screen displays the active channels for each lever
position (see p. 25).

that corresponds with your selected objective for
transmitted light observations. The selector will click
into place for each of the following positions:

CONDENSER SLIDER SLOT
Transmitted Light Applications
Enhance image quality by inserting a Diuser or
Meniscus condenser slider all the way into the slot .
(See slider usage guidelines, p. 11.)
The Pinhole slider is useful to enhance contrast.
Fluorescence Applications
The Block slider is useful in a dark environment to block
fluorescent light from being reflected by the condenser
and improve image quality. It allows more access to the
sample than the light shield box.
MOUSE SCROLL WHEEL
When the “Enable Mouse Wheel” option is selected
in the Basic tab of the Settings dialog box (see p. 27),
the mouse scroll wheel will adjust the illumination
intensity. Roll the scroll wheel away from you for
brighter illumination, or roll it toward you for dimmer
illumination.
