To adjust the orientation of the fiber optic bundle port on the Episcope, loosen the Episcope from the Camera Head and either tighten or loosen the adjustment ring on the Episcope. Then re-tighten the episcope to the camera head Plug the LEMO connector at the end of the camera cable into the mating connector on the front panel of the Imaging and Illumination Platform Box. Thread the universal light post into the illumination port at the front end of the Episcope. Plug the opposite end of the fiber optic bundle into the Illumination port on the front panel of the Platform box. Following the Imaging and Illumination system instructions, connect the Platform Box to a video monitor and turn on the system.
