Leica M series Manual 44
Under certain circumstances, the light source
must not be moved along with the optics
carrier. A typical example is multifocus images
in which the Z-stack changes while the angle
of incidence of the light must remain the same.
For such purposes, the Leica LED5000 MCI™ is
directly fastened to the column.
Installation on the column
1. Pull the retaining stirrup out of the Leica
LED5000 MCI™.
2. Screw the retaining stirrup into the column
at the notch using the single screw. If you
tighten the screw, the retaining stirrup is
automatically moved into the correct posi-
tion.
3. Push the Leica LED5000 MCI™ onto the
retaining stirrup.
