Figure 43. Placing the deck tray in the instrument.
After all of these steps have been performed, touch the
Start
button to begin the purification or touch
the
Cancel
button to return to the previous screen.
Important:
The reagent cartridges are designed to be used with potentially infectious substances. Users
should wear the appropriate protection (i.e., gloves, goggles, etc.) when handling infectious substances.
Users should adhere to their institutional guidelines for the handling and disposal of all infectious
substances used with this system.
Important.
The plungers must be placed in the well closest to the elution tubes. If the instrument goes
through a run with the magnetic rods unprotected, the magnetic rod assembly must be thoroughly
cleaned (see Section 6.B) and the samples will be lost.
8. While the protocol runs, you will see the Protocol Selected screen (Figure 44). The title bar of the
Protocol Selected screen indicates the protocol currently being run. This screen displays:
• The name of the user who started the protocol run.
• An estimate of the time remaining until the end of the run.
• A description of the current step being performed.
• A progress bar showing the percent completion of the progress.
It is possible to perform some instrument functions (i.e., viewing reports, associating quantitation data
with reports, using an integrated Quantus™ Fluorometer) during an extraction run by touching the
Home
button and selecting a function. Touch the rotating timer icon in the title bar from any other
screen to return to the Protocol Selected screen while a protocol is running. If you wish to abort the
current run, touch the
Abort
button in the lower right corner of the screen.
Note:
Any samples being processed will be lost if a run is aborted.
