IMPORTANT
The BX-UCB control box is the basic module for controlling the drive of a BX2 microscope with motorized
specification. It also incorporates the power supply for the microscope.
The U-HSTR2 hand switch has a button layout optimized for the motorized BX2 system.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Before connecting cables, be sure to set the main switch of the BX-UCB control box to “ ” (OFF)”.
2. Make sure to ground the equipment for safety and for maintaining the electrical safety performance.
3. When installing the control box, leave spaces of more than 10 cm around it. (Note that the control box also has a
ventilation air inlet on the front panel).
4. Distribute the power cord and other cables away from the lamp housing and its surroundings. Otherwise, the cord or
cable coating may melt by heat and cause an electric shock hazard.
5. Never allow the push ring driver (U-FWT/O/R) or Allen wrench that is provided with an associated module or microscope
to enter the air vents on the control box. Otherwise, an electric shock and/or malfunction may occur.
Symbol Explanation
The following symbols are found on the unit. Study the meaning of the symbols and always use the equipment in the
safest possible manner.
Before use, carefully read the instruction manual. Improper use could result in personal injury to
the user and/or damage to the equipment.

Reflected lighting.
1Getting Ready
1. The control box and hand switch are precision equipment. Handle them carefully by avoiding any shock or impact, and
also connect each cable gently.
2. Do not use the equipment under a direct sunlight, in a place under high temperature and humidity or in a place subject
to vibrations. (For the operating environmental condition, see chapter 3, “SPECIFICATIONS” on page 7.)
3. While the main switch of the BX-UCB control box is set to “ I” (ON), do not replace any module, plug or unplug any cable
or switch the light path manually to prevent malfunction (manual switching of the revolving nosepiece is permitted).
4. Never disassemble any part of the unit as this could result in mafunctions or reduced performance.

1Attaching Indication Stickers (Fig. 2)
1. Attach each piece of the provided function indication stickers onto the
dented area @ above the button where the corresponding function is
set.
2. The indication stickers are given weak adhesive force intentionally so
that they can be removed and re-attached easily.
3. The indication stickers include two types of stickers carrying no indica-
tion on them.

2-3 Operation Selection of the DIP Switches
}The allocated functions of the DIP switches are shown in the table below.
# Make sure the main switch is set to “ ” (OFF) before setting the DIP switches. The unit detects the new settings
only when the power is switched on, making those settings effective.
}The shaded sections show factory settings (all set at off).
* The freedom degree (number of available holes) search is effective only when initialization is performed at
the time of switching on the power (DIP switches 7 of SW1is set at off). The compatible motorized modules
are U-FWT, U-FWR, U-FWO and BX-RFAA.
** When using the U-D6REM or U-D5BDREM, you do not have to set the DIP switches 2 and 3 due to the revolving
nosepiece's automatic selection function.
Regarding the RS232C Cable
# Be sure to use a commercially available RS232C straight cable. (Use of other cables may cause malfunction.)
Use a D-Sub 9P (female)-D-Sub 9P (female) connector. Be sure to set the main switches of the control box and PC
to “ ” (OFF) before connecting the RS232C cable.
