Problem Possible Solutions
Image does not respond to changes in
focus or stage position
• Click the LIGHT ON button (note that a red USB icon on the
Save button indicates there is an unsaved image, which will
be lost unless it is saved before clicking LIGHT ON).
LIGHT ON/OFF button is inactive
• Verify that the light cube selection lever is clicked into a
position.
• Verify that the objective selection wheel is clicked into a
position.
Scalebar does not appear when clicked
• Capture image first; scalebar is only available after capturing
an image.
Save button does not respond when
clicked
• Click capture first; it is only possible to save an image that is
captured. The USB icon on the Save button is red when there
is a captured image to save.
DVI output does not work on an
external LCD monitor or projector
• Power the instrument off, check the cable connections, and
power on the instrument.
• Verify that the external display accepts DVI-D input (i.e.,
digital input). A monitor with analog input only (DVI-A) will
not display the digital output from EVOS
®
.
Unable to connect to network
• Verify physical cable connections; confirm the Ethernet jack is
active.
• Use a compatible network adapter.
• If the physical connections are good, and the problem persists,
contact your network administrator to resolve any network
issues. Note that a Linux network must use Samba for EVOS
®
to be able to find it.
