Guidelines for the use of the LED illuminator accessories:
The slider with diffusion disk 10° emits more light for examining objects with the eyepieces.
The slider with diffusion disk 80° emits a more homogeneous light for examining objects with
the camera.
The slider handle may serve as a manual shutter in order to block out the disturbing self-
fluorescence in the fluorescence light.
You may adjust the color temperature for examining objects by inserting color temperature
filters into the slider with diffusion disk (retainer with prescrew ring).
Yellow filter 1 --> changes the color temperature of the LED (about 7500 K) to about 4500 K
Yellow filter 2 --> to about 5500 K
Yellow filter 3 --> to about 4000 K
Polarizer LED is a special slider which can be ordered for simple DL polarization procedures.
A simple polarization contrast is possible with the polarizer, yet no conoscopy can be
performed.
