Initial Startup

When you turn on the system for the first time, perform the following procedures:

1. Adjusting the Sample Probe Height

2. System Initialization

Adjusting the Sample Probe Height

Adjust the sample probe height to ensure that the probe drops far enough into the well to

acquire sample.

NOTE: Ensure that there is no liquid in the wells or reservoirs before

adjusting the sample probe height.

NOTE: When you adjust and save the probe height settings for all three

areas under a plate name, all areas retain the adjustment.

WARNING: Correct sample probe height is critical to successful sample

acquisition and calibration. Problems with the sample probe

height can lead to fluid leaks and inhibit sample acquisition.

1. On the Home page, click Probe and Heater under Daily Activities. The Probe &

Heater tab opens.

2. Select a plate in the Plate Type list.

• 96-well and 384-well Hard Bottom Plates - No disk is required. Ensure that the well

location is selected on the plate image. Use well D6 for the 96-well plate and well H12

for the 384-well plate (a green pin marks the location). To change the well location,

click on the desired well in the plate image.

• 96-well Filter or Mylar Bottom Plate - Place one (5.08) alignment disk into a well.

Ensure that the well location is selected on the plate image. Luminex
