NOTE:

*When you are using a microscope incorporating the DIH-M, only the current optical path is displayed.

*Each time you left-click to select, the optical path changes sequentially from Binocular to Front port and Rear port and back to Binocular. When you right-click to select, the optical path changes sequentially from Binocular to Rear port and Front port and back to Binocular.

*If you change the optical path, AE is locked unless the port to which the camera head is connected has been set to be enabled.

<Selecting the port to which the camera head is connected>

When you are using the DIH, the camera head can be connected to the front port and rear port. With default settings, the camera head is connected to the rear port. If you want the camera

head connected to the front port when you use it, select the check box (by putting a check mark in it).

NOTE:

*The F_Port check box is displayed only when the connected microscope incorporates the DIH-M or DIH-E.

*When the DS-L1 is used with the front port, you will see the message "None" displayed in the Zoom column of the "microscope control menu 1" and the "microscope status display/microscopy setup menu" (MIC Info menu).

*Information on the selected port to which the camera head is connected is retained even after power to the camera head is turned off. The saved settings take effect the next time the power to the camera head is turned on.
