connected.
Instrument Power On
When switching ON the instrument no initialization steps are performed.

between the instrument and the user interface.
The following steps are performed:
1.
OS filter wheels are initialized (M200 only)
2.
Luminescence filter wheel is initialized
3.
Z-transport of luminescence optics is initialized

5.3
General Options
The following options may be taken independently from the particular
measurement technique.
Note
To keep temperature on a constant level and provide uniformity
across the plate, the plate must be placed in “incubation position”.
When the “heating” function is used during shaking,
the temperature may vary slightly.
