The UV laser has recently been exhibiting a declining UV laser power output. This occurs over time as the laser is now >4 years old. Currently it is (and we) still recommend the current use of the UV laser on the LSRII, however we have scheduled for an inspection for the 13th June 2018 that may result in a UV laser change. If this occurs we will update users and provide our recommended procedure for users currently utilising application settings. Updates will be posted here.
