Chapter 8 Running a wash protocol
Note: Before running a wash protocol, make sure that the dispensing lines and washing heads
are properly purged and free of bubbles. Use the Rinse function to purge the dispensing lines to
be used.
Also make sure that the Purge Volume in the settings menu is set appropriately. Make sure that
all bottles to be used have their sensors enables, and if different protocols will be used for washing
from multiple bottles, set the Purge at Power On to “multiple”.
Select a protocol from the Protocol file list (see Chapter 5, Protocol File List) or
setup a New Protocol (see Chapter 7, Creating a new wash protocol)
Install the 96 wells plate on the plate holder, make sure the position and
orientation matches the wash head setting.
When using the 1×8 wash head, the A1 position on the plate should be to the
left upper corner and when using the 1×12 wash head, the A1 position on the
plate should be too the left lower corner.
Select the rows to wash (if required to change)
