2.5.3 Axio Vert.A1 FL-LED Stand for Transmitted Light and Reflected Light LED
Fluorescence
Legend to Fig. 2-8:
1 Eyepieces
2 Binocular part of the tube
3 Transmitted light illumination (either with a halogen or an LED illuminator)
4 Two-position filter slider mounted on the carrier for transmitted light illumination
5 Condenser (either condensers with modulator disk or condensers with slider slot)
6 Transmitted light LED illumination for fluorescence application (built into stand)
7 Specimen stage with object guide attached
8 Y-adjustment knob of the mechanical stage
9 X-adjustment knob of the mechanical stage
10 Reflector turret
11 Focusing drive - fine focusing (right-hand side)
12 Focusing drive - coarse focusing (right-hand side)
13 Illumination intensity of transmitted light on/off
- Turn the control button to increase or lower illumination intensity.
- Press the control button to switch transmitted light or reflected light illumination on or off.
14 Intensity of FL-LED reflected light illumination
- Turn the control button to increase or lower illumination intensity.
- Press the control button to save light intensity values of the LED illumination permanently.
15 permanent/ECO switch:
- permanent position: Illumination is switched on permanently, with the ECO power-saving function not activated.
- ECO position: The ECO power-saving function is activated. (Applies to both transmitted light and reflected light.)
16 Power indicator (blue)
17 Slot for contrast sliders with analyzer or with PlasDIC module (left-hand and right-hand sides)
18 Slot for DIC sliders or PlasDIC sliders in the objective nosepiece
19 Knurled ring of the objective nosepiece
20 TL/RL switch for transmitted light / reflected light (At a change from RL to TL, LED light intensity values are temporarily
stored.)
21 Stop for the vertical adjusting range of the focusing drive
22 Focusing drive - coarse focusing (left-hand side)
23 Focusing drive - fine focusing (left-hand side)
24 On / Off switch
25 Slot for contrast sliders with analyzer or with PlasDIC module (left-hand and right-hand sides)
When the TL/RL (20) switch is in RL position, you can permanently save the light intensity set
for the reflector position in use by pressing the control button. Light intensity values are saved
temporarily in the TL position.
The ECO function is also effective in reflected light.
