 +*Optional  
 + 
 +===== Turn On Procedure ​===== 
 + 
 +1. Turn on the Computer 
 + 
 +2. Turn on power bar #1 and then power bar #2. These power bars are behind the microscope table, on a rail just above the floor. 
 + 
 +3. Turn on laser key 
 + 
 +4. (Optional) Turn on incubator powerbar if you are planning to use the incubator and/or the CO2 
 + 
 +5. (Optional) Turn on the valves for CO2 and Nitrogen mixture, if you planning to use CO2 on your experiment 
 + 
 +6. Login in Agendo and open the Fusion software. 
 + 
 +7. Please ask assistance in advance, if you are going to use either the micropump system or/and the incubation setup. 
 + 
 + 
 +===== Turn Off Procedure ===== 
 + 
 +1.Close the software and save all your files to the “files1” server (shortcut in desktop). DO NOT CONNECT external disks/USB flash drives to the workstation! Check if you are the last user in Agendo and if you’re not, proceed to step 5. 
 + 
 +2. Turn the laser key to the Off position 
 + 
 +3. Turn off both the power bars in the back of the microscope table 
 + 
 +4. Clean any immersion objectives used. Use ONLY lens paper provided by staff, NEVER use other types of paper (eg lab towels) or cotton swabs. Apply a few drops of cleaning solution (EtOH) to the lens paper and gently swipe the tip of the objective in a linear motion without pressure (no circular motion). Repeat with a different part of the paper to remove all oil residue. 
 + 
 +5. Take your belongings (slides, pipettes, etc...); there'​s a glass disposal bin in the lab!
  
 +6. Log off your computer session.
