The TV camera can be installed in a side port (right or left port) or the bottom port (only for Ti-E/B). To
change the optical path, use the optical path selector switch on the microscope.
Note that the laser shutter automatically closes when the microscope optical path is changed to the
eyepiece. It is not possible to observe images, obtained by irradiating the laser to the specimen, from the
binocular part of the microscope.
