GelDoc-It TS Imaging System 12
Image Focusing
With the Manual Lens
Prior to capturing any images, prepare the image focus capabilities of the system:
1. Turn on the transilluminator and place the Fluorescent Focus Target on the transilluminator surface. NOTE:
The darkroom has a UV safety switch that turns the transilluminator off when the door is open. After closing
the door, be sure the overhead white light switch is turned off.
2. While watching the LCD screen, rotate the lens f-stop adjustment (top ring) so that the image is bright
enough to see on the screen.
3. Rotate the lens focus adjustment (bottom ring) on the lens. Adjust this so that the image appears in clear
focus on the LCD monitor. Note: Once the proper zoom range is set, the lens will have to be refocused
when zoomed in completely.
4. Rotate the zoom lens adjustment (middle ring) on the lens, so that the image is as big as possible. Readjust
the focus ring (bottom ring) on the lens, making the image clear. Adjust the zoom so that the object of
interest is within the picture on the LCD monitor.
