The Zeiss LSM 710 confocal has been repaired. I replaced the Ch2-M (middle) detector, and after some delay calibrated the detectors. The system is working nicely. Please disregard previous instructions to avoid detector Ch2-M.

Our Leica DLS Light Sheet and confocal has been repaired, thanks to the Department of Medicine and Leica (Ghevant). I've tested the instrument, and it is working great for both confocal and light sheet work. I recomend using low gains for the best images, provided photobleaching is low.
