Setting the Cover Glass Angle
Use this function to select a desired angle at which to
pick up the cover glasses.
NOTE: This menu item is available only when the system
is on standby or paused or when the system check screen
is displayed.
The coverslipping arm operates at an angle when
picking up cover glasses.
This angle is called the “cover glass angle.”
Each cover glass varies depending on its brand and
the storage environment. If the cover glass angle is not
appropriate for the specific type of cover glass, cover
glasses may crack when picked up or more than one
cover glass may be picked up together. When this occurs,
take the following actions:
• If two cover glasses are often picked up together,
increase the cover glass angle.
• If cover glasses often crack, reduce the cover
glass angle.
1. Press the MENU key twice.
2. Press the < and > keys to highlight 2, “Cover Glass
Type,” and then press the ENTER key.
3. The cover glass angle setting screen appears (Figure
3-W).
4. Press the SIZE key and select the cover glass size for
which the angle is to be changed.
5. Press the < and > keys to change the cover glass
angle for each size.
6. Press the ENTER key to save the selected setting. To
return to the menu screen without saving the change,
press the EXIT key.
