3.1.11 HAL 100 halogen illuminator
The HAL 100 illuminator is used as light source for transmitted-light and reflected-light techniques (except fluorescence) on the Axio Imager. Attachment to the reflected-light or transmittedlight socket is performed analogously.
3.1.11.1 Attaching the HAL 100 halogen illuminator
• Remove the protective cap from the reflectedlight or transmitted light socket.
• Insert the dovetail mount of the lamp housing (3-13/9) into the corresponding socket (3-13/2 or 3-13/6) and, using the SW 3 ball-headed screwdriver, tighten it with clamping screw (3-13/1 or 3-13/8).
• Insert 3-pole lamp plug (3-13/7) into 3-pole 12 V/100 W connector (3-13/3 – for reflected

|
reflected light (3-13/4) to the required position. |
The light manager functionality depends on the position of the toggle switch.

Coarse adjustment |
|
• Loosen clamping screw (3-13/1 or 3-13/8) and |
|
|
|
remove the operational halogen illuminator |
|
|
from the microscope stand. |
|
• |
Switch on microscope as described in Section |
|
|
4.3. |
|
• |
Direct the light beam to a projection surface |
|
|
(wall) that is at least 3 m away. |
|
|
Do not look into the light exit aperture |
|
|
of the illuminator. |
|
• |
Using the SW 3 ball-headed screwdriver turn |
|
|
adjusting screw (3-14/3) until both images of |
|
|
the lamp filament appear as sharp as possible |

the lamp filament of one image exactly fills the gaps of the reflected filament image (3-14/1).
(2)Fine adjustment
•Reattach the microscope illuminator to the microscope stand and lock it with the clamping screw.
•Move diffusion disk for reflected or transmitted light out and remove the filter wheels from the respective slot.
•With an objective of ≤ 40x, focus on the specimen and search for a free place on the specimen.
•Remove eyepiece and, in the pupil image visible in the eyepiece socket, center the lamp filament and its reflection with adjusting screws (3-14/4 and 5).
•Using adjusting screws (3-14/3) optimize the evenness of illumination of the pupil image.
It is advisable to use the adjusting aid (4-1/5) for fine adjustment of the halogen illuminator mounted to the reflected-light socket. After pulling out the adjusting aid, the lamp filament and its reflection can be viewed directly in its viewing glass.
• Move the diffusion disk in and reinsert the filter wheels.
