1. Preparation stage:
To make sure that the microscope is used in a good environment and there is no dust, dirt, or shaking, If the objective lens and eyepiece have dust or dirt, We should gently wipe it with a clean and soft cloth. Read the user's manual carefully, then choose the appropriate light source to install it. The light source should be stable, and the brightness should be moderate.
2. Aiming at light:
Turn on the light source, adjust the brightness to a moderate level, and be careful not to be too bright or too dark so as not to affect the observation effect.
Turn the converter and aim the low-power objective at the light hole, which is suitable for preliminary aiming. We can rotate the reflector to get the best light reflection, depending on the position of the light source. There are two points that affect the amount of light entering the microscope and will affect the brightness of the field of view: Firstly, the appropriate aperture size. Secondly, turn on the aperture adjuster. When we observe the visual field through the eyepiece, if you want to make sure there are no shadows or spots in the field of view, We can do the following: adjust the light source, reflector, and aperture to make the visual field bright and uniform. Make sure there are no shadows or spots in the field of view.
3. Precautions:
Keep the microscope stable in the process of aiming at light, and avoid the failure of aiming at light caused by vibration or movement. Be patient with the light, and don't rush for success. Adjust the light source, reflector, and aperture repeatedly to get the best observation effect. Improper adjustment of the light source will cause shadows or spots to appear in the field of vision, reflector, or aperture. At this time, it needs to be readjusted until the field of vision is bright and uniform.
Through the above steps, the microscope can successfully align the light to prepare for the follow-up observation.
