Introduct on
Thank you for purchasing the Comprehensive Scope 2. This compound
microscope series is a high-quality, versatile design for entry level to
advanced science courses. The Comprehensive Scope 2 line each
comes with these key features: coaxial focusing, an adjustable light
dimmer (rheostat), a built-in carrying handle, and a secure storage
compartment for the battery charger/power cord. This series allows users
to view microscopic specimens under our high-quality objective lenses
that will magnify 40-1000 times with the option of having
interchangeable viewing heads, a mechanical stage, and an Abbè
condenser with an iris diaphragm. The Comprehensive Scope 2 is ideal
for the classroom and field use.

M croscope Set-up Gu de
The Comprehensive Scope 2 compound microscope can be set up in a
matter of minutes. To get the most out of this amazing teaching tool,
follow these step-by-step instructions:
1. After unpacking the box, remove the Comprehensive
Scope 2 from the plastic bag and remove the protective
coverings from the objective lenses and the eyepiece(s).
2. Place the microscope on a flat, firm surface.
3. Check the coarse focus knob on either side of the main
body support. The coarse focus knobs should turn
easily.
NOTE: The stage should move freely up and down the main body
support when focusing. When you release the knob, the stage should
remain stationary, and not slide down the post on its own.
4. To operate the cordless feature of this microscope,
immediately plug in the microscope to charge for eight
(8) hours.
a. Plug in the round pin adapter from the power
supply to the back of your microscope.
b. Connect the opposite end to a Ken-A-Vision
multicharger (Part # SCGN061) or an 110V
(220V international) electrical outlet.
NOTE: With one eight (8) hour charge, you can use the microscope for
up to forty (40) hours of continuous operation. The cordless microscope
can also be operated with the cord plugged into a power source.
c. When not in use, plug the microscope into a
Ken-A-Vision multicharger that will automatically
stop charging once the microscope is fully
charged to keep it at the optimal full charge for
longer battery life. This prevents overcharging
and the user can charge up to eight (8)
microscopes at once.
d. Should you need a replacement power
supply/charger, or new specialized rechargeable
batteries (Part # VFBATBU5), contact your
nearest Ken-A-Vision dealer.

T-19011C/T-19011C-230
The monocular Comprehensive Scope 2 compound microscope with
COO IGHT™ illumination allows for viewing microscopic specimens
through a 10x wide-field eyepiece with 4x, 10x, and 40x(S) DIN Plan
Achromat objective lenses on a square, fixed-plain stage with a 5-hole
disk diaphragm, spring-loaded stage clips, and an adjustable light
dimmer (rheostat).
T-19012C/T-19012C-230
The monocular Comprehensive Scope 2 compound microscope is the
same as the T-19011C monocular above, except that there is a 4-hole
nosepiece that includes a 100x(S) oil immersion objective lens, a
mechanical stage with spring-loaded stage clips, and an Abbè
condenser with iris diaphragm.
T-19021C/T-19021C-230
The dual viewing head Comprehensive Scope 2 compound microscope
with COO IGHT™ illumination allows two people to look at a
microscopic specimen through two (2)-10x wide-field eyepieces at the
same time or connect a camera to one eyepiece to display on an
interactive white board/projector/computer. One eyepiece has a diopter,
so the second user can adjust the ring to focus his/her eye, allowing for
the differences in vision between two users. This microscope allows for
viewing microscopic specimens through 4x, 10x, and 40x(S) DIN Plan
Achromat objective lenses on a square, fixed-plain stage with a 5-hole
disk diaphragm, spring-loaded stage clips, and an adjustable light
dimmer (rheostat).
T-19022C/T-19022C-230
The dual viewing head Comprehensive Scope 2 compound microscope
is the same as the T-19021C dual view, except that there is a 4-hole
nosepiece that includes a 100x(S) oil immersion objective lens, a
mechanical stage with spring-loaded stage clips, and an Abbè
condenser with iris diaphragm.

T-19031C/T-19031C-230
The Seidentopf binocular Comprehensive Scope 2 compound
microscope with COO IGHT™ illumination allows for viewing
microscopic specimens with both eyes and to adjust for interpupillary
distance with the two (2)-10x wide-field eyepieces at 4x, 10x, 40x (S),
and 100x (S) DIN Plan Achromat objective lenses on a mechanical stage
with spring-loaded stage clips, an Abbè condenser with iris diaphragm,
and an adjustable light dimmer (rheostat). The eyepieces will move to
exactly match the interpupillary distance between the user’s eyes. The left
eyepiece has a diopter to allow the user to focus the left eye once the
right eyepiece is in focus. Adjusting the diopter allows for the difference
in vision between the users two eyes.
T-19041C/T-19041C-230
The Seidentopf trinocular Comprehensive Scope 2 compound
microscope is the same as the T-19031C Seidentopf binocular above,
except that behind the binocular head, an eyepiece tube is added to
provide another user or camera to view the microscopic specimen.

Troubleshoot ng
This section provides many useful tips on how to solve common
problems while setting up or using the Comprehensive Scope 2:
I can’t see an image. I only see a partial image.
• Check to see if the power supply is plugged into an
electrical outlet or the battery is charged if using
cordless.
• Check to see if the ED lights are turned on by switching
the power button on the back of the microscope. A red
indicator light should glow if the ED lights are on.
• Check to see if the objective lens is clicked into place.
• Adjust the disc/iris diaphragm, located underneath the
stage, to control the amount of light illuminating the
prepared slide.
• Check to see if the dimmer switch (rheostat) is turned
clockwise to allow the intensity of light to increase.
It is difficult to get an image to focus.
• Adjust the coarse focus knobs slowly.
• Check to see if the objective lens is clicked into place.
• Check to see if there has been damage to the objective
lenses and eyepiece(s). If the lens/eyepiece is dirty, use
lens paper and distilled water to rub gently clean.
NOTE: Never rub the lens/eyepiece when it’s dry. This can cause static
charge that will attract dirt.
