1.0 X-Light V2TP hardware
1.1 X-Light V2TP description
CREST X-Light V2TP is a high throughput full spectrum spinning disk confocal imager with super-resolution
add-on module capability. It can be attached to all major inverted epi-fluorescence microscopes allowing full
spectrum (360nm-700 nm) confocal imaging.
Detailed Specification:
•Easy plug-in spinning disk box
•Full compatibility with Crest VCS (Video Confocal Super-resolution) module for 3D resolution enhancement
•Microscope side-port adapter mounting for original C-mount adapter
•Single hole pattern spinning disk or double hole pattern spinning disk, on same physical disk
- High density hole patterns, with Nipkow design
•Anti Reflection coated spinning disk for highest throughput on the market
•Fast spinning disk 15.000 rpm
•Up to 2000 frame/s (tested with CMOS High Speed Systems)
• Custom hole patterns are available for dedicated applications (90-120 days delivery), from receipt of
customer specification/pattern geometrical description
•Excitation Gimbal mount for easy alignment on custom microscope setup and for best S/N
•LED and Laser excitation mounts for high efficiency coupling
•Motorized Dichroic five positions Filter Wheel
•Standard eight positions motorized Emission Wheel
•Extraction tools for easy insertion and removal of both dichroic filter and emission filter
•Up to 22mm field of view for new sCMOS confocal imaging on single hole pattern disk
•Up to 12mm x 12mm field of view in double pattern configuration (for each pattern)
•CCD focal plane easy focusing without moving the CCD Camera
•Adapter for Multimode Laser or SMA-905 fiber excitation

1.3 CREST X-LIGHT V2 Light Path
X-LIGHT V2TP Confocal Imager Light path
Excitation Filter Wheel: The X-Light V2TP has been engineered to work with LEDs and Lasers mainly.
Dichroic Filter Wheel: The quick release dichroic wheel has 5, positions and accepts commercially
available up to 25.5x36 mm dichroic mirrors. Dichroic positions can be controlled via serial commands
(software control).
Emission Filter Wheel: The quick release emission filter wheel has 8 filters positions and accepts
commercially available 25mm filters (up to 5mm thickness ring mounting included).
Dichroic positions can be controlled via serial commands (software control).
Spinning Disk: The Nipkow spinning disk can be moved in and out of the light path and confocal images
and wide-field images can be obtained respectively. The spinning disk can be controlled via serial
commands (software control).
Camera: A wide range of CCD/EMCCD cameras and sCMOS cameras can be attached to the confocal unit
to obtain confocal, wide field or bright field images.
