7.1 Functional Principle (Leica DMI4000 B and Leica DMI6000 B)

Thanks to its intelligent automation, the Leica DMI4000 B and DMI6000 B can be controlled using a
variety of control elements.
1 . Intelligent Automation
• Switching between contrast methods at the touch of a button. Light rings, DIC prisms, etc.
are automatically positioned in the beam path.
• The microscope recognizes the selected objective and associated contrast method.
The intensity (INT), aperture diaphragm (AP) and fi eld diaphragm (FD) are always set to suit-
able values.
• The INT, AP and FD values are always based on the currently activated illumination axis
(transmitted light or incident light).
• The INT, AP, and FD values can be adjusted individually. Manual adjustments overwrite the
previous settings. The current setting is stored and is retained from one session to the next
when power is switched off.
2. Controls
• SmartMove knobs
for stage and focus control
• Fixed function buttons on stand
for INT, AP, and FD, as well as for switching between transmitted light and incident light axis
• Variable function buttons on stand, SmartMove, STP6000
These function buttons have functions suitable to the confi guration of your microscope as-
signed to them at the factory. The functions can be reprogrammed and/or adapted to your
specifi c requirements, however.
• Complete control of microscope and camera via software
(Leica Application Suite (LAS/LAS AF))
