If a robotic arm other than the Type 6.1462.030 supplied as standard is
to be used, it will be necessary to make configuration settings. You will
require a 6.2142.050 keypad to do this.
Configuring the Swing Head and robotic arm
Since each type of robotic arm has different geometrical dimensions, it
is absolutely essential to adapt the Setup settings for the Swing Head
to the relevant type of robotic arm. No settings need to be made for the
robotic arm supplied as standard.
Changes are made in the Setup dialog box. The individual settings re-
late to:
•
swing offset
•
maximum swing angle
•
swing radius
•
swing direction
You can open the Sample Processor's Setup dialog by pressing the
<CONFIG>
key on the keypad during switch-on of the instrument.
