PHOTOMICROGRAPHY AND TV OBSERVATION
}Use the U-TR30H-2 trinocular observation tube or the side port for photomicrography.
Photomicrography can be performed using the PM-10, PM-20 or PM-30 photomicrographic system.
For how to use the photomicrographic system, refer to the instruction manual of the photomicrographic system in use.
The following descriptions are the procedures related to this microscope.

(In Combination with the IX-SPT)
(Fig. 68)
# The U-SPT straight photo tube cannot be mounted.
1. Using the Allen screwdriver, loosen the clamping screw @ on the photo
port of the trinocular observation tube and remove the cap.
2. Align red index ² on the front of the photo port of the trinocular observation
tube with red index ³ on the IX-SPT straight photo tube, then fit the
circular dovetail of the straight photo tube into the photo port of the
trinocular observation tube.
3. Tighten the clamping screw @ firmly.
When the Side Port is Used (In Combination with the IX2-SPT)(Fig. 69)
1. Loosen the side port clamping screw @ of the microscope frame using
the Allen screwdriver, and remove the cap.

index ³ on the side port and fit the straight photo tube.
3. Tighten the clamping screw @ firmly.
# When the side port is not used, attach the cap for protecting it from
dust.
Use only a PE photo eyepiece for photomicrography.
Insert the PE photo eyepiece @ into the photomicrographic system mount
on the straight photo tube.
}The IX2-SPT or IX-SPT is equipped with a plunger for use in preventing
