CHAPTER 1 - SYSTEM OPERATIONZEISS Left Tool Area and Hardware Control Tools LSM 88064 000000-2071-464 10/2014 V_015.1.4 Incubation ToolTo have access to incubator functions to define theatmosphere and temperature, you have to expandthe Incubation tool by pressing the arrow in theIncubation tool (Fig. 62).You will have access dependent on the attachedequipment to− Temperature (°C) control− Atmosphere (%) control− Y-module (°C) controlTo have access to the respective controls, you haveto expand the fields by pressing the triangles(Fig. 63).The Temperature (°C) panel allows you to controlup to 4 independent heating channels that arelinked to certain devices (e.g. incubator XL, heatinginsert P, objective heater etc.) that are assigned todifferent channels. Enter the desired nominaltemperature via the input boxes by typing in thenumbers or by using the arrows to set theparameters. Check the corresponding box toactivate the desired Channel. The numbers on theright will display the actual temperature. If a sensoris available, its temperature will also be displayed.The Atmosphere (%) panel allows defining the O2and CO2 concentration via the input boxes eithertype in the numbers or use the arrows to set theparameters. In order to monitor O2 , CO2 andhumidity levels, check the corresponding boxes.Actual values will be displayed on the right. If ahumidifier is available it can be activated bychecking the Humidity box. The actual humidityreading is displayed on the right,The Y-Module (°C) panel allows setting the temperature for two independent thermostats (circulators),that can be selected via the Selected drop down menu. Each thermostat has two output channels, 01and 02. Type into the input boxes or use the arrows to define the appropriate temperature for eachmodule. Activate the modules by checking the corresponding boxes. The actual values will be displayedto the right of each module.Note that using the Z-Piezo stage insert, which is required for both HR-SIM and PALM, only theincubator function of the incubator XL are available as Heating Insert P and Incubator S do notfit to this stage. The latter can therefore only be used without the Piezo stage insert.Fig. 62 Incubation toolFig. 63 Incubation tool – Expanded fieldsfor atmosphere and temperaturecontrol
