- <RESOURCE LIMIT> – not editable (only for station <FLOW-THROUGH>).
- <DELAY> – editable parameter: the duration of a rack’s delay in the upper position
after rising from a trough (0-99 seconds, default value is 10).
Stations No. 3-8, 9-16 can allocate troughs with reagents or racks, these stations
must have respective application values: <TECHNOLOGICAL> or <PARKING>. All
parameters of stations designated as <TECHNOLOGICAL>, in contrast to <DRYING> and
<FLOW-THROUGH>, are editable (Fig. 23).
Figure 23. Configuration of station No. 3 with a reagent.
- <STATION APPLICATION> parameter <TECHNOLOGICAL> – editable parameter.
The station is reserved for a trough with a reagent. On pressing the button
TECHNOLOGICAL, the value is switched to <PARKING>, which means that the
station is now designated for placement of racks. The only editable parameter of
parking stations is <STATION APPLICATION>.
- <REAGENT> parameter <BUFFER PH<7> (name of reagent) – editable parameter.
If necessary, the name of a reagent can be changed by pressing the button with the
parameter’s name and selecting a needed name from the list. To enter a new reagent,
press the button NEW (reagents screen No. 5 or 6). The manufacturer’s list of
reagents is given in
Appendix B
.
- <RESOURCE LIMIT> – editable parameter: how many times it is left for the
manipulator to use a station with reagent until the exhaustion of its limit (e.g., because
of changing properties of reagent). The admissible limit of usages is set by the
operator within the interval 0-255; the default value is 255.
