Devices may only be operated by duly instructed personnel who must have received proper
instructions about the potential danger involved in operation of the Auto Focus. The focus-
maintaining controller, which controls the focus drive, is a
precision instrument. It may suffer
impaired functionality or even destruction as a result of unqualified intervention.
The detachable power cables may not be replaced by cables of inadequate dimensions.
The fc12 focus controller is designed to work within a voltage range of 100 V to 240 V ±10 %
at 50 to 60 Hz without additional voltage conversion.
Voltage to the Axio Imager 2 is supplied from the separate internal power supply or from the
VP232-2 power supply which is an integral part of the stand. Voltage to the Axio Imager Vario is
supplied from the VP232-2 power supply which is an integral part of the stand.
No voltage conversion is required for operation in a voltage range of 100 V to 240 V ±10
frequencies from 50 to 60 Hz.
Switching the Auto
Focus controller to the "Off" position will only turn off the internal
computer. The mains voltage of the controller or the Auto Focus sensor will not be disconnected.
To interrupt the mains supply, the main power plug must be pulled.
