User manual LEICA TL-BASES BROCHURES

[. . . ] In this way the user has full control of the transmitted light without having to spend time looking for the best transmitted light angle. Control the brightness of the light source and the mirror between the two guided end positions. Change the lamps in a matter of seconds The new, easy-to-use lamp changing mechanism enables quick replacement of a halogen lamp. After a cooling down phase, the user can access the lamp holder directly by removing two screws on the heat sink. Work in comfort The large work surface of the standard transmitted light stand enables comparative analysis of several specimens. While a specimen is analyzed under the stereomicroscope, the other specimens can remain on the stand for quick changeover if need be. [. . . ] The two integrated diaphragms that create the relief effect can be individually positioned from fully open to fully closed. The relief effect can also be regulated from slight to strong by precisely tilting the path-folding mirror with the rotary button on the left side of the stand. This technique offers many variable views for extracting the maximum possible amount of information from every specimen. Perfect coordination with automated stereomicroscopes Leica's TL RCITM transmitted light stand feature two USB ports and two CAN bus interfaces. The brightness of the light source can be controlled via a USB mouse. Combined with motorized Leica stereomicroscopes and macroscopes, motorized focus, and Leica Application Suite (LAS) software, the user has full computer control over the zoom level, focusing, color temperature, brightness, and shutter of the illumination. Many different test series can be extracted from LAS software and automated. Constant color temperature Color temperature and brightness are controlled separately with Leica's high-performance stands. Using the CCIC function, the brightness is set completely independently from the color temperature ­ and the required color impression remains exactly the same when the illumination intensity changes. The potentiometer for the color temperature also has an electronically controlled shutter; if the stand is switched on again after a work break, it automatically returns to the previous settings. Three available color filter slots The TL RCTM and TL RCITM each feature three slots for color filters. These slots can be used for filters that are available as accessories, i. e. neutral gray, fluorescence filter BG38, and UV filter, or fitted with other filters as the user wishes. Choice of integrated or external light source The high-performance stands of the TL series are available in two designs: with integrated halogen illumination or with a connection for external cold light sources. If a user already has a cold light source, it can be used on the new stand. In addition, the new Leica CLS150 LS cold light source enables the internal shutter to be controlled directly via a PC. TM TM TL RCITM: Heat sink for the integrated light source and ports for the external control (2×USB, 2×CAN). Filter-changing unit, individual filter holders (not fitted), rotary buttons for the upper and lower diaphragm of the Rottermann ContrastTM, rotary button to position and set the mirror's angle. Leica MZ16 A with Leica DFC320 digital camera, motorized focus, TL RCITM transmitted light stand, XY stage and Leica UMC manual control using Leica Application Suite (LAS) software. 6 6 Totally Integrated Solutions Leica Application Suite (LAS) integrates Leica's automated microscopes, digital cameras, and software into one common environment to provide an easy-to-use, consistent solution with unrivaled performance. The flexibility of LAS makes it is suitable for a diverse range of life science and industrial applications such as pathology, pharmaceutical testing, materials research, and many others. LAS solves and accelerates routine and research analysis through rich image processing functions that simplify the visualization, enhancement, measurement, and documentation of digital images. An introductory LAS package is supplied with the latest Leica microscopes and digital cameras which provides the basic software for their configuration and control, and enables the user to immediately begin to acquire, analyze, and process high-quality digital images. These fundamental capabilities can be enhanced with a range of advanced LAS modules and applications to form an integrated microscopy-imaging environment. Control of the light temperature and brightness using Leica Application Suite (LAS). 7 Incident Light Stand Mobility and compact space requirement Laboratory workstations often provide very little space. Leica's new incident light stands are designed to offer exactly the right amount of surface area. [. . . ] After changing from the standard stage (catalog no. 10447269), the specimen's level remains at exactly the same elevation as before, and the illumination settings remain unchanged. Leica's SlideOnTM design Changing over from a standard stage to the XY stage is surprisingly easy. By simply removing several screws, the standard stage can be replaced by the XY stage. [. . . ]
