CP-8400/8410 has found the approximate Vial 0 (or Vial 1) position, visually
check that the syringe sled is not resting on the Vial top.
If the syringe sled is resting on the vial top, press the Syringe “Up” button
until the syringe sled is clear of the Vial top by approximately 1 mm.
5. Start the calibration process by adjusting the tower position. Move the
Tower CCW or CW until the needle-guide is exactly cover the top of the
calibration tool.
6. For CP-8400, set the sample-carrousel position. You may have to switch
back and forth between the tower and sample-carrousel one or more times
to determine the optimum rotational positions.
7. Adjust the syringe sled height so that the needle is just barely above the
calibration tool top. You should be able to see about a paper’s thickness of
space between the syringe sled needle guide and the top of the calibration
tool. The penetration depth into the vial is measured from the bottom of the
needle guide, so this height will give you optimum penetration depth.
8. Press the “Accept” button if the calibration of Vial 0 or 1 is complete, the
calibration data will be saved.
9. Press “Exit” button to exit the calibration screen, without saving the
calibration data.
If the used Vial is shorter/longer then the calibration t ool it ’s
advisable to repeat only the Syringe calibration.
