Installing Emission Filters
To install the 50mm
2
ethidium bromide (EtBr) filter and any other emission filters:
1. Carefully remove the filter from
the protective plastic case,
holding the filter at the edges to
prevent placing fingerprints on
the glass surface.
2. The filter wheel is located on the
user’s right side of the darkroom.
Press in on the slide-out filter
wheel door and the door will pop
out slightly. Pull the filter wheel
assembly out until it stops.
3. Manually rotate the filter wheel to the desired position. Place the included ethidium bromide
filter in Position #1.
NOTE: Before placing the filter in the filter wheel, ensure that the text on the edge of the filter
is positioned so it is right side up when facing the installer.
4. Note the position of all installed filters for entry into the Lighting and Filters menu in the TS2
Software (refer to the TS2 Software User Manual for more information).
5. Once all filters have been loaded, slide the filter wheel assembly back into the system. Press
the filter wheel assembly door until the assembly locks into place.
Additional and replacement emission filters are available through UVP. Refer to the “Replacement
Parts and Accessories” section of this manual for ordering information.
