Replacing an Objective (Different Magnification)
You must install objectives in specific slots in the turret. See Installing an Objective on page
12 for details. Because of this, the only reason to replace an objective with another objective
of a different magnification is when you are a swapping the 40x objective and the 63x
objective in slot 5.
To replace an objective with an objective of a different magnification:
1.
In the CellReporterXpress software, on the Home page, click Devices.
2.
Click Show Device Options to expand the details for the instrument where you
want to replace an objective.
3. Click the Objectives tab.
4.
In the tile for objective slot 5, click Component Exchange.
5. Click the Choose Objective drop-down list box, and select the objective you want to
install.
6. Click Open Maintenance Door.
7. Remove the objective to be replaced from the instrument by gently turning it
counterclockwise.
CAUTION! When not installed in the instrument, an objective should always be
stored in its case.
8. Install the replacement objective in the slot by gently turning it clockwise.
CAUTION! Retain the objective case for future storage needs. When not installed
in the instrument, an objective should always be stored in its case.
9. Do both of the following:
a. Manually close the maintenance door.
b. In the CellReporterXpress software, click Close Maintenance Door.

After you replace an objective, you may need to calibrate it. See Calibrating an Objective on
