„dry" ( DRY) and „immersion" ( IMM)
Each objective is assigned to a specifi c objective
category:
1) Dry objectives (DRY)
2) Immersion objectives (IMM)
Note:
It is possible to use objectives for both operating
modes.
The mode can be assigned in the Leica Applica-
tion Suite (LAS).
Changing the operating mode
• First, select the operating mode (Imm or Dry)
using the function buttons.
The operating mode may also be selected in
the Leica Application Suite (LAS).
• The objective turret is lowered to its bottom
stop. This is to permit the application of the
immersion liquid when changing from a dry to
an immersion objective. It also permits the re-
moval of the liquid when changing to dry mode.
The current objective remains in the beam
path.

Note:
When replacing objectives, you must perform
a teach-in for the new objectives in the Leica
Application Suite (LAS). A parfocality teach-in
should also be performed.
Note:
For lockable immersion objectives lock these by
pushing the front part upwards until it stops (ap-
prox. 2 mm). Then, after a gentle turning motion
to the right, the objective is locked.
For objectives with corrective mounts turn the
knurl to adjust the objective to the thickness of
the cover glass.
