START-UPAxiolab 5 Using the Light Manager function ZEISS05/2019 430037-7444-001 773.5 Using the Light Manager functionThe Light Manager (LM) function saves the ratios of the set light intensities between differentcombinations of objective and reflector turret positions for a given light source. When changing the lightintensity of one objective/reflector combination, the light intensities of other combinations will alsochange according to the set ratios. This ensures that users don't need to repeatedly set up light intensitiesfor each objective/reflector combination when switching between samples which require differentillumination intensity.After switching on the microscope, the previous setting of the Light Manager will be restored.Disable/enable the LM functionTo disable the LM function, proceed as follows:• Press one of the Snap buttons and the Intensity/LM knob simultaneously for at least 1.5 seconds.The indicator light blinks in the following sequence: GREEN / ORANGE / GREENTo enable the LM function, proceed as follows:• Press one of the Snap buttons and the Intensity/LM knob simultaneously for at least 1.5 seconds.The indicator light blinks in the following sequence: GREEN / GREEN / GREENSave light intensity ratios using the LM function1. Switch to the first objective and/or reflector positions of interest.2. Set the desired light intensity.3. Press the Intensity/LM knob for at least 1.5 seconds.4. The light intensity for this objective/reflector combination is then saved. When using LED as lightsource, after the light intensity is saved, LED is switched off for 300 ms. This is visible througheyepieces and serves as an indicator for the user.5. Proceed by switching to the second objective/reflector combination, and press the Intensity/LM knobfor at least 1.5 seconds. Now a ratio between the first and the second objective/reflectorcombinations is established.6. Repeat step 5 to set light intensity ratios for more objective/reflector combinations.
