    titleStart-up
    1. If not already done, turn on the computer (#1) and log in to Windows using your UdeM credentials
    2. Remove the dust cover from the microscope
    3. Turn on the microscope power bar (#2) on the desk between the microscope and the computer
    4. When using the instrument for the first time, it is necessary to import the microscope configuration into the software. See the First Use section below before starting the software
    5. Start NIS-Elements
    UI Expand
    titleFirst Use

    When using the instrument for the first time, it is necessary to import the microscope configuration into the software. This procedure is usually carried out during the training session. However, it can also be used to reset the software if it does not display correctly, for example. 

    Note

    Running this procedure will erase all your experiment protocols and reset the software to its original settings. If you are not sure, ask for support.

    1. If NIS-Elements is open, close it and wait until it has completely shut down (this may take up to 30 seconds)

    2. On the Desktop, open the Softwares folder

    3. Open NIS Settings Utility
    4. Click on the Import tab
    5. Click on Browse
    6. Navigate to your C:\Users\Public\Documents
    7. Select the file Nikon_Ti2-Fura_NIS Settings.bin
    8. Click Select
    9. Select all items
    10. Click Import
    11. Click OK
    12. Close the NIS Settings Utility
    13. You can now reopen NIS-Elements
    UI Expand
    titleLoading samples

    During this procedure, you will:

    • Set the microscope in a safe configuration

    • Load your sample

    • Find and adjust the focus

    Once completed, your sample will be ready for acquisition.

    UI Expand
    titleInitial Focus

    1. On the microscope, gently push the transmitted light arm backward

    2. In NIS-Elements, click Escape Z to move the objectives to a safe position

    3. If not done already, click on the lowest magnification objective

      Info
      The lowest magnification is the safest to use due to its long working distance: the sample will appear in focus well before the objective lens gets close to it. It is recommended to always perform the initial focusing with the lowest magnification objective. Since the objectives are parafocal, focusing with le safest objective will make it easier to locate the sample when switching to higher magnification objectives

    4. Place the test slide on the microscope stage, with the coverslip toward the objective

      Tip

      Using a test slide will significantly reduce the time needed to set up the instrument

    5. If necessary, use the joystick to move the stage so the sample is centered under the objective

    6. Gently return the transmitted light arm to the vertical position

    7. In NIS-Elements, click Escape Z again to return the objectives to their normal position

    8. Click on the desired optical configuration (BF, DAPI, GFP, etc.)

    9. Click Live (») to activate the light and display the camera image

    10. Adjust the light intensity and exposure time to obtain a well-exposed image

    11. Adjust the focus until the image is perfectly sharp.

    12. Click Stop to stop the Live or on Off to turn off the light
    Tip

    The focus is around Z = 2100 µm. The Z-position value is displayed: 

    • On the microscope remote control: Use the Display button to navigate the display menu
    • In NIS Elements: Ti2 Pad Tab under Z value
    UI Expand
    titleCreate a preview

    It is possible to create a preview image to then easily navigate your sample. It is strongly recommended to use the lowest magnification objective and whenever possible use the BF optical configuration not to bleach your sample.

    After completing the initial focus:

    1. In NIS Elements, click on the desired optical configuration (BF, DAPI, GFP, etc.)

    2. Click Live (») to activate the illumination and display the camera image on the screen

    3. Adjust the light intensity and exposure time to obtain a properly exposed image

    4. Using the Joystick navigate to the top left corner of your sample
    5. In the the XYZ overview click + to add a point and save this position
    6. Using the Joystick navigate to the bottom right corner of your sample
    7. In the the XYZ overview click + to add a point and save this position
    8. In the XYZ Overview right click and under Large Image Area select Define Area
    9. Draw a rectangle around the two points
    10. Right click again on the created region of interest and select scan preview
    11. Wait until the preview acquisition is completed

    You can now directly click on the overview to navigate your sample !

      Info

      The 20x is the best air objective because it has the highest numerical aperture (0.75).

    After completing the initial focusing:

    1. In NIS-Elements, click Escape Z to move the objectives to a safe position

    2. Click on the desired immersion objective (60x)

      Info

      The 60x is the best immersion lens because it has the highest numerical aperture (1.4).

    1. Remove the test slide

    2. Place a single drop of oil on the objective

    3. Place your sample

    4. Click Escape Z again to return the objectives to their normal position

    5. Click on the desired optical configuration (BF, DAPI, GFP, etc.)

    6. Click Live (») to activate the illumination and display the camera image on the screen

    7. Adjust the light intensity and exposure time to obtain a properly exposed image

    8. Adjust the focus using the precision knob until the image is perfectly sharp

    9. Click Stop to stop the Live mode or click on the optical configuration Off to turn off the illumination

    Your sample is now ready for acquisition!

    titleCamera Driver Failed

    This can happen if the acquisition software is turned on before the camera has fully initialized. The software should be started after the camera has fully initialized.

    • Turn off NIS-Elements
    • Ensure the Initialize light at the back of the camera no longer blinks
    • Start NIS-Elements

    FAQ

    titleCan I use this microscope to look at cell in a dish?
    • Yes. This is an inverted microscope designed to look at specimen in a dish or a multi-well plate
    • The objectives are optimized to image through thin glass bottom multi-well plates
    • You may also image specimen mounted between a slide and a 0.17mm thick coverslip
    • For long timelapse, be aware of photo-toxicity
