Touchscreen
The QIAcube Connect MDx is controlled using a swivel-mounted touchscreen. The touchscreen
allows the user to operate the instrument and to guide the user through worktable setup. During
sample processing, the touchscreen shows the protocol status and remaining time.

Hood
The QIAcube Connect MDx hood protects users from the moving robotic arm and from potentially
infectious material placed on the worktable. The hood can be manually opened to gain access to
the worktable. During operation of the QIAcube Connect MDx, the hood must remain closed and
should only be opened when instructed to do so by the software. Therefore, a hood lock has been
implemented to avoid inappropriate opening.
WARNING
Moving parts
[W18]
To avoid contact with moving parts during operation of the QIAcube Connect
MDx, the instrument must be operated with the hood closed.
If the hood sensor or lock is not functioning correctly, contact QIAGEN
Technical Services.

The power switch is located at the front right of the QIAcube Connect MDx and is used to power
ON and OFF the instrument.
RJ-45 Ethernet port
The RJ-45 Ethernet port located at the back of the instrument beside the power cord socket, is only
used to connect the QIAcube Connect MDx to local area network via cable.
