EasyLED Spotlight Plus - Operating Instructions
PI_69 5/10
The EasyLED Spotlight Plus System emits high intensity visible light. As light absorbing materials
have the physical property of converting incident light into heat, damage may occur to heat sensitive
or flammable light absorbing materials. To avoid such thermal damage and the potential danger of
fire or burns, please adhere to the following instructions:
xNever cover up the EasyLED Spotlight Plus System (danger of fire!)
xNever cover up the light emitting aperture of the spotlights with your hands or other parts of your
body (danger of burns!)
xWhen illuminating heat sensitive or flammable light absorbing objects, special care must be taken
to keep an appropriate distance and select a suitable brightness level in order to avoid thermal
damage to the object.
xAll spotlights not being used in the working procedure must always be a safe distance – at least
10 cm – away from heat sensitive or flammable light absorbing materials (prevention of possible
fire hazard). Care must, therefore, be taken that these spotlights are at the above mentioned safe
distance away from, for example, dark/coloured textiles and dark/coloured wooden or plastic
surfaces
xTo avoid unnecessary strain on biological tissue by illuminating with visible light, reduce the
brightness and duration of illumination to the absolute minimum level required.
Please make sure that your EasyLED Spotlight Plus System is operated at the
voltage indicated on the rating plate (8).
iThe EasyLED Spotlight Plus System has been developed for operation in dry rooms only (see
Point 6 "Technical data").
iThe instrument must not be used in explosive areas.
iSafe disconnection from the power supply is only guaranteed by pulling out the mains plug.
iThe instrument may neither be opened nor dismantled. Technical modifications are forbidden.
Repairs must only be carried out by the manufacturer or by its authorised customer service
agencies.
iPlease ensure that every user of the system has quick access to these operating instructions.
iThe manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by failure to obey these instructions.

2. Operation and use
2.1 Installation
The EasyLED Spotlight Plus System is designed for direct installation on all common microscope
and swivel arm stands. Matching adapters have either been included with the light source or are
available from your dealer (see Point 5 "Accessories").
Start by guiding the matching side of the mounting adapter (A) into the designated holder (5) on the
bottom of the control unit as far as it will go. Proceed by guiding the two fastening screws (M5)
through the groove from the bottom before screwing them in place using an Allen key (3 mm).
You are now ready to clamp the EasyLED Spotlight Plus System onto the microscope or swivel arm
stand using the mounting adapter. You may have to remove the microscope body / carrier
beforehand and refit it when installation is complete.
2.2 Power connection
Plug the barrel connector of the included power supply unit
into the designated mains connection socket (4) on the
control unit.
Please ensure to operate your EasyLED Spotlight Plus
System only with the included power supply unit.
The plug connection of the power supply unit is
interchangeable for EU, UK, US and AU. The plug
connection needs to be connected to the mains supply (100-
240 V AC, 50-60 Hz).

2.3 Start-up procedure
You turn the EasyLED Spotlight Plus System on/off by pressing the
switch (3).
The blue indicator light (2) will be on when the instrument is switched
on.
Please disconnect power by pulling out the power plug!
2.4 Light intensity setting
The brightness can be adjusted continuously by turning the
light intensity setting knob (7).
The scale is divided into 6 brightness levels ranging from 0
to 5.
The greatest light intensity is reached when the knob is
turned all the way to position 5.
Please note that when the brightness control is set to 0,
there is no more intensity as all spotlights are off. However,
the instrument itself is not switched off in this case.
To turn the EasyLED Spotlight Plus System off, press the
On/Off switch (3) once.
2.5 Operating mode selection (EasyLED Double Spotlight Plus System only)
You can successively select the following operating modes by pressing the switch (3) repeatedly:
LED head 1 ON, LED head 2 ON, both LED heads ON, both LED heads OFF, etc.
3. Maintenance
Your EasyLED Spotlight Plus System is maintenance free.
Disinfecting the light source during medical applications is to be avoided.
To clean the outside of the instrument, disconnect the instrument from the mains supply and use a
soft dry cloth or commercially available plastic cleaning cloths. However, never use combustible or
flammable liquids for cleaning.

4. Troubleshooting
Should you be unable to correct the fault you are experiencing applying the measures listed below,
turn to your authorised dealer or the next SCHOTT dealership. More extensive repairs have to be
performed by authorised service technicians.
Type of the fault Possible cause Remedy
Lamp off Instrument not switched on
Switch the instrument on
Plug not in socket Insert the plug
No mains voltage Check mains voltage
Light intensity decreasing LED head overheated Provide sufficient cooling, and
allow the instrument to cool down
before resuming operation
5. Accessories for your EasyLED Spotlight Plus System
We offer an extensive range of accessories to complement your EasyLED Spotlight Plus System.
Only SCHOTT accessories guarantee perfect operation, safety and optimum light yield.
You can install screw on filters acting as optical filters in front of the LED head. Please refer to our
catalogue for details on the standard types of filters we carry.
We also offer mounting adapters for our EasyLED Spotlight Plus System that match microscope
stands and swivel arms. We either include these adapters with your light source, or you can order
them separately. Refer to our catalogue for a detailed description of the available models.
If not mounted to a stand or swivel arm, the instrument can also be installed to a base as a
standalone unit by means of a corresponding mounting device. More information is, again, provided
in our catalogue.
