2. Connect the free end of the Phase Accessory communication cable to

the round port on the LS560 back panel (left side) labeled External

Lamp Power Out. This allows the Phase Accessory to be controlled by

Lumaview.

F. Brightfield

1. For optimal brightfield, use of the Phase Accessory (Section I.E. above) with the included Slider in an

open position (no phase ring) is recommended. The Phase Accessory provides collimated light and is

directly connected to the LS560, allowing it to be controlled by Lumaview. It should also be used when

imaging in a dark environment such as an incubator. To mount the Phase Accessory above the LS560

deck, see Section I.E. above. Brightfield images will be in gray scale due to the monochromatic CMOS

camera.

2. If the Phase Contrast Accessory is not available, ambient light in a typically lit area can sometimes be

used. The light should be as uniform as possible to prevent shadows or other dark or light areas.

Overhead fluorescent lighting can cause uneven brightness including a striped pattern; if observed,

move the LS560 or partially shade the light to reduce unevenness across the sample.

G. LED Power (not applicable to the LS460)

For almost all fluorescence imaging applications, power from the computer via the USB cable to the

LS560 will be sufficient. If high levels of illumination are required, e.g., with very dim samples, plug the

small round plug of the external power supply/cord into the round port labeled SUPPLEMENTAL

POWER on the back of the LS560 and the electrical plug into an AC outlet. You should see a moderate

increase in the Illumination level.

H. Installing Objectives

1. Manually remove the insert of the accessible deck. Unscrew the black cap (or previously installed

objective) on top of the optics block and screw in the new objective. Do not overtighten. Return the

removable insert to the deck.

2. When installing or changing an objective, carry out the replacement quickly to minimize the chance of

dust falling onto the mirrored dichroic filter. If any dust is observed on the filter, carefully blow it off

using a compressed air duster, making sure to hold the can UPRIGHT and bending the straw to aim the

air directly toward the filter. DO NOT tilt the can or liquid can be emitted, which will require further

cleaning. Other methods to remove dust may damage the dichroic filter and must NOT be used.

About Lumaview

1. The LS560 is controlled by the Lumaview software program. The latest Lumaview version is

downloadable from Etaluma's website and must be installed prior to connecting your computer for

the first time to the LS560 (due to the need for two Drivers that are installed on the computer at the

same time).
