8.3  USING THE ACCESSORIES 

8.3.1 

Automatic 8 cell turret 

 

When  the  automatic  8  cell  turret  is  in  use  the  8  cell 

turret  icon  is  displayed  in  the  bottom  right  hand  corner 

of  the  screen.  The  current  cell  position  is  displayed 

adjacent to the 8 cell turret icon. The 0 position should 

always be used for the zero calibration blank sample. 

To  perform  measurements  using  the  automatic  8  cell  turret,  insert  the  cuvettes  containing  the 

samples into turret positions 1 to 7. Insert the cuvette containing the blank solution into turret position 

0.  Enter  the  required  measurement  mode  and  set  up  the  required  measurement  parameters.  Press 

the key below the calibrate to zero icon. The instrument will automatically move the turret around to 

position zero to perform the measurement. Once the calibration is complete the measure sample icon 

will appear and the turret will return to its original starting position. 

 

Press  the  key  below  the  8  cell  turret  icon  to  highlight 

the icon and the two arrow icons above. Press the keys 

adjacent to the arrow icons to increase or decrease the 

current  cell  position  of  the  turret,  until  the  required 

sample  position  has  been  selected.  Press  the  key 

below the measure sample icon. The instrument will 

perform a reading and display the result on the screen. To measure the next sample select the next 

turret  position  and  press  the  key  below  the  measure  sample  icon.  Repeat  this  process  until  all  the 

samples  have  been  measured.  To  adjust  the  wavelength  press  the  key  below  the  8  cell  turret  icon 

and use the arrow icons to adjust the wavelength.  

8.3.2   Peltier  

 

When  the  Peltier  is  in  use  the  Peltier  icon  is  displayed 

in  the  bottom  right  hand  corner  of  the  screen.  The 

current  temperature  is  displayed  above  the  set  point 

temperature adjacent to the Peltier icon. An arrow icon 

is displayed above or below the Peltier icon depending 

on if the current temperature is above or below the set  

temperature. To adjust the set point temperature hold the key below the Peltier icon for 2 seconds.
