For instructions on removing the slides, see “Step 7. Remove the slides” on page 24.
Agilent slides have two barcodes, one on each side of the glass. See Figure 10 . Typically,
non-Agilent slides have only one barcode. For both Agilent and non-Agilent slides, place the active
microarray side of the slide facing toward the slide holder cover.
If you have a slide whose active surface is on the side opposite to the barcode, the scanner
cannot read the barcode.
NOTE
See “Barcode and barcode label specifications” on page 91 to apply a second
readable barcode.
CAUTION
An improperly inserted slide can damage the scanner.
