Start-up procedure

1. Remove the dust sheet from the microscope stand and put it in the box beneath the table.
2. Turn on the main switch on the power distribution unit behind the microscope stand. This supplies power to the PC and monitor as well as the Examiner and WSB PiezoDrive control boxes on the shelf above the microscope stand.
   
3. Turn on the System and Components buttons on the PSU box in the Component Rack. Turn the Laser key in the LM box one quarter-turn clockwise from 0 to I. The white Laser ON LED will come on for a short time after the key has been turned.
   

4. Wait for the Laser ON LED to go off; there will hear a short sequence of beeps when this happens.

   You must wait for the Laser ON LED to go off before you boot the PC, otherwise the software might not recognise the components.

   
   

5. Turn on the PC. Log into Windows. Double-click the Zen icon to open the software.

Shut-down procedure

Wipe the objective lenses with lens tissue to remove residual oil. Save your data and close Zen. Wait until the microscope icon in the notification area disappears, then shut-down Windows. Once the PC is off, turn the Laser key back to 0. Turn off the System and Components switches on the Component Rack. Turn off the main switch behind the microscope stand. Cover the stand with the dust sheet.
