Testing performed by our in-house service team:
The ImageXpress Micro Confocal HCI System passed all tests and was found to be fully functional:
• We initialized the ImageXpress Micro Confocal System.
• We established communication with the software.
• We verified the clarity of the objectives.
• We ensured the proper functionality of environmental control features.
• We tested the laser autofocus functionality.
• We ensured clarity across all installed filters.
• We verified the functionality of the Lumencor Aura II illumination system.
• We tested the illumination of the transmitted light (TL) Halogen Lamp.
• We tested the phase contrast capability.
• We performed multi-well acquisition tests.
• We tested the emission and dichroic filter wheel functionalities.
• We conducted the spatial (GP-2) calibration procedure.
• We confirmed the clarity and functionality of the camera.
• We verified full movement of the X and Y stages.
• We confirmed full Z-axis movement.
