2.4 General safety instructions

Do not plug anything into or unplug anything from the ports when the system is

connected to the power supply.

The system is not intended to be used for general microscopy tasks.

No guarantee is provided on an image file. For example, even if the following

state is generated attributable to an operation error of an observer, malfunction

of the device, a system failure including a potential one, or the like, or at the time

of normal operation or normal movement, it will not be possible to perform

image restoration or damage compensation.

1. Abnormal state of an image

2. Abnormal state of file property such as a file name and file date and time

3. Disappearance of an image

Confirm, edit or save the image for backup through care of the observer. To be

noted is that the electronic recording media such as USB memory, HDD and

DVD-R have retention lives in general and there may be the case that a file saved

may disappear in several years.

Further, there is no authenticity or tamper-proof characteristic.

Prevent from strong vibrations as they can impair the image quality.

Regarding to 3-axes control unit for scanning stages and motorised focus drives,

1. Item caution for use

2. Installation prevent from strong vibrations and risk of explosion

3. Temperature prevent from direct sunlight or strong heat sources

4. Humidity prevent from splash water and moisture
