7. Start-up

7.2 Switching on the Microscope

Leica DMI3000 B:

¥Switch on the microscopeÕs power at the On/ Off switch . The signal lamp is lit when the in- strument is ready. (For the Leica DMI3000 B please continue at 7.4. Function Buttons on the Stand)

Leica DMI4000 B and Leica DMI6000 B:

¥Switch on the power of the electronics box at the On/Off switch (80.1). The signal lamp (80.2) is lit green when the unit is ready. All motor- ized microscope components will then run through an initialization phase.

Note:

If a PC is connected, switch on the electronics box first, and then the computer.

After the initialization (Fig. 81) is complete, the LeicaScreen will display the microscopeÕs cur- rent settings (Fig. 82).

If a component has not been installed correctly, the LeicaScreen will display an error message. See Troubleshooting chapter, p. 102. Components such as diaphragms, condensers, light and phase rings have been pre-centered at the factory. It may be necessary to correct the centering after the microscope has been trans- ported and assembled.

Before performing the required steps, please fa- miliarize yourself with the LeicaScreen and the controls.

Caution!

After turning on the gas discharge lamp, the burner must be immediately adjusted. There- fore, do not turn on the power supply unit yet. First, work in transmitted light in order to familiarize yourself with the microscopeÕs controls.
