Why won't my Nikon Eclipse 50i turn on?
If your Nikon Microscope doesn't power on even when the power switch is on, check that the power cord is properly connected.
Why is my Nikon Microscope image flowing?
If the image appears to be flowing on your Nikon Microscope, it could be because the specimen is tilted relative to the stage surface. Make sure to correctly reposition the specimen on the stage. Also, check that the revolving nosepiece is correctly attached and fully rotated to the click stop position.
Why is the field of view too dark on my Nikon Eclipse 50i?
If the field of view is too dark on your Nikon Microscope, it could be due to several reasons. First, check the condenser aperture diaphragm and ensure it is set to 70 to 80% of the objective N.A. Next, make sure the field diaphragm image is focused on the specimen surface by focusing and centering the condenser. Finally, ensure the optical path switching lever is set to the 100% eyepiece.
How to align images in left and right eyepieces of Nikon Eclipse 50i?
If the images in the left and right eyepieces of your Nikon Microscope are not coincident, it indicates that the interpupillary adjustment has not been performed. Make the necessary adjustments.
How to fix uneven illumination across the field of view in Nikon Eclipse 50i Microscope?
To fix uneven illumination or vignetting in the field of view of your Nikon Microscope, start by confirming that all parts, such as the nosepiece and condenser, are correctly attached. Next, ensure that movable parts like the optical path switching lever, nosepiece, and filter cube switching knob are correctly switched until you feel a click. Also, focus and center the condenser to ensure the field diaphragm image is focused on the specimen surface. Make sure the field diaphragm is open slightly wider than the field of view. Lastly, check for dirt or dust on the lens or container and clean it off.
What to do if there is dirt or dust in the field of view of my Nikon Eclipse 50i?
If you notice dirt or dust in the field of view of your Nikon Microscope, it could be present on the lens or container. Clean off the dirt and use a clean container. Alternatively, the field diaphragm image may not be focused on the specimen surface, in which case you should focus and center the condenser.
Why is the field of view too bright on my Nikon Microscope?
If the field of view on your Nikon Microscope is too bright, it could be due to a couple of reasons. First, check if there is an ND filter in the optical path; if not, place ND filters in the optical path. Second, for the 50i model, the lamp voltage might be too high. Try reducing the voltage using the brightness control knob.
What to do if cytodiagnostic unit power doesn't turn on Nikon Microscope?
If the power does not turn on for your cytodiagnostic unit, even when the cytodiagnostic power switch is set to on, ensure that all cables are properly connected and pushed in as far as they will go. If using the 55i, make sure the 55i's power switch is also set to on.
What to do if Nikon Eclipse 50i Microscope power does not turn on?
If the Nikon Microscope does not turn on, even when the power switch is set to on, it could be due to the power cord not being properly connected. Ensure that the power cord is correctly connected.
What to do if the lamp does not light on my Nikon Eclipse 50i Microscope?
If the lamp on your Nikon Microscope does not light, it likely means the lamp has burned out. Replace the lamp with a specified one.
