MODE
“MODE” saves and loads a “microscopy state” (position and status of motorized devices) and is useful for an observation
when switching between different microscopy state.
To use this function, you must have registered a set of motorized units for loading in each mode. More than one motorized
unit can be registered for one mode with up to 8 modes available for setting.
No motorized units are registered for any mode as default.
Ex.: Switching between the differential interference contrast and epi-fluorescence microcopy
in observation
MODE1: Registers the condenser, aperture diaphragm, field diaphragm, elevating section, and the lamp brightness
MODE2: Registers the epi-fl filter turret, FL shutter, Intensilight, and the excitation wheel
Up to four alphanumeric characters can be used for a mode name. Here, MODE1 is named as “mdic” and MODE2 as “mfl”
for registration.

Registering a mode
Start from the DS-L3 [MICROSCOPE SETUP] screen.
[SETUP MENU] → [MODE]
(1) Specify MODE1.
For the initial registration of the mode, factory setting
mode names [MD1] to [MD8] are displayed on the
buttons.
The mode name is displayed on the button for which a
