Thus, various adjustment values may be displayed for theLEDs. If an LED reaches 100 % it cannot be set to a higher value. The remaining LEDs can becontrolled simultaneously, until they have reached their maximum at 100 %.If the (sun) button is activated, further LEDs will be automatically controlled when switchedon.If RL and TL are switched on at the same time, the selector wheel on the microscope stand willcontrol the intensity of the selected LEDs.
