  If the transmitted-light illuminator on your Zeiss Microscope isn't lighting up, first ensure that the illumination is switched on and the intensity is properly adjusted by pressing and turning the rotary/push-button. If that doesn't work, the transmitted light might not be correctly connected. In that case, open the stand K EDU or K LAB and connect the plug-in connectors of the LED illumination.
