instrument assumes that 50-mL collection tubes are being used.
The Sort Tube Size prompt is displayed only for active regions.

When sorting, the target population defined by Region 1 is sorted into
the collection tube placed in Position 1 (left) in the collection tube holder,

tube placed in Position 2 (right).
