General Instructions

Safety concept

Before using your Leica ICC50 HD camera for

the ﬁrst time, please read the "Safety concept"

brochure included with your instrument. It

contains additional information about handling

and care.

Use in clean rooms

The Leica ICC50 HD camera can be used in clean

rooms without any problems.

Cleaning

ϘDo not use any unsuitable cleaning agents,

chemicals or techniques for cleaning.

ϘNever use chemicals to clean colored

surfaces or accessories with rubberized

parts. This could damage the surfaces,

and specimens could be contaminated by

abraded particles.

ϘIn most cases, we can provide special solu-

tions on request. Some products can be

modiﬁed, and we can oﬀer other accesso-

ries for use in clean rooms.

Servicing

ϘRepairs may only be carried out by Leica

Microsystems-trained service technicians.

Only original Leica Microsystems spare

parts may be used.

Responsibilities of person in charge of

instrument

ϘEnsure that the Leica ICC50 HD is operated,

maintained and repaired by authorized and

trained personnel only.

Leica ICC50 HD Manual 4

Safety concept

The Leica ICC50 HD camera include an interac-

tive CD-ROM with all relevant user manuals.

Keep it in a safe place, and readily accessible

to the user. User manuals and updates are also

available for you to download and print from

our web site at www.leica-microsystems.com.

This operating manual describes the special

functions of the individual modules of the Leica

DM microscopy series and contains important

instructions for their operational safety, main-

tenance, and accessories.

The "Safety concept" booklet contains addi-

tional safety information regarding the service

work, requirements and the handling of the

microscope, accessories and electrical accesso-

ries as well as general safety instructions.

You can combine individual system articles

with articles from external suppliers (e.g. cold

light sources, etc.). Please read the user manual

and the safety requirements of the supplier.

Before installing, operating or using the instru-

ments, read the user manuals listed above. In

particular, please observe all safety instructions.

To maintain the unit in its original condition

and to ensure safe operation, the user must

Description

The individual modules fulﬁll the highest

requirements for observation and documenta-

tion of the Leica ICC50 HD camera.

Designated use

ϘSee "Safety concept" booklet

Non-intended use

ϘSee "Safety concept" booklet

The devices and accessories described in this

operating manual have been tested for safety

and potential hazards. The responsible Leica

aﬃliate must be consulted whenever the device

is altered, modiﬁed or used in conjunction with

non-Leica components that are outside of the

Unauthorized alterations to the instrument or

noncompliant use shall void all rights to any

warranty claims!

Location of use

ϘSee "Safety concept" booklet

ϘSet up the electrical components at least

10 cm from walls and combustible objects.

ϘAvoid large temperature ﬂuctuations,

direct sunlight and vibrations. These condi-

tions can distort measurements and micro-

graphic images.

ϘIn warm and warm-damp climatic zones,

the individual components require special

care in order to prevent the build up of

fungus.

Requirements for the owner/operator

ϘSee "Safety concept" booklet

Repair, service work

ϘSee "Safety concept" booklet

ϘOnly original Leica Microsystems spare

parts may be used.

ϘBefore opening the instruments, switch oﬀ

the power and unplug the power cable.

ϘTouching the live circuit can cause injury.

Transport

ϘUse the original packaging for shipping or

transporting the individual modules of the

Health risks

Workplaces equipped with microscopes facili-

tate and improve the viewing task, but they

also impose high demands on the eyes and

holding muscles of the user. Depending on the

duration of uninterrupted work, asthenopia

and musculoskeletal problems may occur. For

this reason, appropriate measures for reduction

of the workload must be taken:

ϘOptimal arrangement of workplace, work

assignments and work ﬂow (changing tasks

frequently).

ϘThorough training of the personnel, giving

consideration to ergonomic and organiza-

tional aspects.

The ergonomic design and construction of the

Leica DM microscopy series are intended to

reduce the exertion of the user to a minimum.

Leica ICC50 HD Manual 9

Congratulations on purchasing the Leica ICC50

HD Digital Camera Module by Leica Microsys-

tems. The special design of the Leica ICC50 HD

makes it a universal, highly versatile tool for

viewing microscopic specimens and capturing

still images or even video.

Real Full HD display

The integrated HDMI output allows the micro-

scope image to be output to a High-Deﬁnition

(HD)-capable monitor, where the following

resolutions are possible:

Ϙ1920×1080i ("Full HD"). This resolution

provides the best possible imaging perfor-

mance on a Full HD-capable television.

Ϙ1280×720p ("HD ready"). This resolution is

suitable for display on televisions labeled

"HD ready".

Leica Application Suite

Along with your Leica ICC50 HD, you also obtain

the "Leica Application Suite EZ" software (LAS

Core on request). It allows additional scenarios

to be implemented in which the television and

monitor can even be used together. Thus you

are ideally prepared for every situation: work at

the computer, presentations, training sessions,

trade show appearances, material testing and

more.

User-friendly even in the smallest detail

Like every digital camera, the Leica ICC50 HD

reacts diﬀerently to diﬀerent light sources.

However, the white balance is factory set to

match the Leica LED illuminators. This means

that if you use a Leica LED illuminator, you auto-

matically obtain the best results!

Introduction
