7.2 Switching on the Microscope
Leica DMI3000 B:
• Switch on the microscope's power at the On/
Off switch. The signal lamp is lit when the in-
strument is ready. (For the Leica DMI3000 B
please continue at 7.4. Function Buttons on
the Stand)
Leica DMI4000 B and Leica DMI6000 B:
• Switch on the power of the electronics box at
the On/Off switch (80.1). The signal lamp (80.2)
is lit green when the unit is ready. All motor-
ized microscope components will then run
through an initialization phase.
Note:
If a PC is connected, switch on the electronics
box first, and then the computer.
After the initialization (Fig. 81) is complete, the
LeicaScreen will display the microscope's cur-
rent settings (Fig. 82).

If a component has not been installed correctly,
the LeicaScreen will display an error message.
See Troubleshooting chapter, ∅ p. 105.
Components such as diaphragms, condensers,
light, and phase rings have been pre-centered
at the factory. It may be necessary to correct
the centering after the microscope has been
transported and assembled.
Before performing the required steps, please fa-
miliarize yourself with the LeicaScreen and the
controls.
After turning on the gas discharge lamp, the
burner must be immediately adjusted. There-
fore, do not turn on the power supply unit
yet. First, work in transmitted light in order to
familiarize yourself with the microscope's
controls.
