Home Sensor

switch status indicates when Shoulder-less shuttle is in

Home position (far left position). If in Home position, indicator will be

light green.

Transfer Tip Sensor

switch indicates which type transfer tip is loaded.

Light green indicates a shoulder-less transfer tip is loaded, dark green

indicates a shouldered transfer tip is loaded.

Bowl On/Off

switch indicates when Shoulder-less feeder bowl has been

turned off via the bowl on/off sensor. This sensor monitors the feed tube

from the shoulder-less bowl. Once feed tube is full, the bowl is shut

down, thus preventing any contact jamming. If bowl switch is light green,

bowl will be off, if dark green, bowl should be on.
