[. . . ] Work in comfort The large work surface of the standard transmitted light stand enables comparative analysis of several specimens. While a specimen is analyzed under the stereomicroscope, the other specimens can remain on the stand for quick changeover if need be. A large glass plate protects the stand from any fluids should a spill occur. Leica's new halogen lamp is particularly efficient. With a capacity of only 20W, it reaches the light utilization of a 35W lamp. [. . . ] Phase structures then typically appear as spatial, relief-type images ­ like hills in positive relief contrast and as indentations in inverted relief contrast. The two integrated diaphragms that create the relief effect can be individually positioned from fully open to fully closed. The relief effect can also be regulated from slight to strong by precisely tilting the path-folding mirror with the rotary button on the left side of the stand. This technique offers many variable views for extracting the maximum possible amount of information from every specimen. Perfect coordination with automated stereomicroscopes Leica's TL RCITM transmitted light stand feature two USB ports and two CAN bus interfaces. Combined with motorized Leica stereomicroscopes and macroscopes, motorized focus, and Leica Application Suite (LAS) software, the user has full computer control over the zoom level, focusing, color temperature, brightness, and shutter of the illumination. Many different test series can be extracted from LAS software and automated. Constant color temperature Color temperature and brightness are controlled separately with Leica's high-performance stands. Using the CCIC function, the brightness is set completely independently from the color temperature ­ and the required color impression remains exactly the same when the illumination intensity changes. The potentiometer for the color temperature also has an electronically controlled shutter; if the stand is switched on again after a work break, it automatically returns to the previous settings. Three available color filter slots The TL RCTM and TL RCITM each feature three slots for color filters. These slots can be used for filters that are available as accessories, i. e. neutral gray, fluorescence filter BG38, and UV filter, or fitted with other filters as the user wishes. Choice of integrated or external light source The high-performance stands of the TL series are available in two designs: with integrated halogen illumination or with a connection for external cold light sources. If a user already has a cold light source, it can be used on the new stand. In addition, the new Leica CLS150 LS cold light source enables the internal shutter to be controlled directly via a PC. TM TM TL RCITM: Heat sink for the integrated light source and ports for the external control (2×USB, 2×CAN). Filter-changing unit, individual filter holders (not fitted), rotary buttons for the upper and lower diaphragm of the Rottermann ContrastTM, rotary button to position and set the mirror's angle. Leica MZ16 A with Leica DFC320 digital camera, motorized focus, TL RCITM transmitted light stand, XY stage and Leica UMC manual control using Leica Application Suite (LAS) software. 6 6 Totally Integrated Solutions Leica Application Suite (LAS) integrates Leica's automated microscopes, digital cameras, and software into one common environment to provide an easy-to-use, consistent solution with unrivaled performance. The flexibility of LAS makes it is suitable for a diverse range of life science and industrial applications such as pathology, pharmaceutical testing, materials research, and many others. LAS solves and accelerates routine and research analysis through rich image processing functions that simplify the visualization, enhancement, measurement, and documentation of digital images. An introductory LAS package is supplied with the latest Leica microscopes and digital cameras which provides the basic software for their configuration and control, and enables the user to immediately begin to acquire, analyze, and process high-quality digital images. [. . . ] By combining the XY stage with the 4× glass slide, up to four preparations can be placed on the work surface and can be observed vertically in a fast, precise, and easy way. Always in focus Conventional XY stages have the disadvantage of being higher and so do not provide the best level for specimen viewing when transmitted light stands are used. The illuminated area's homogeneity and strength diminish, and light can no longer be well-guided through the specimen. 10447269), the specimen's level remains at exactly the same elevation as before, and the illumination settings remain unchanged.
