Once a FLOW UNIT is connected, the device automatically detects
it and the "Operation window" will display an additional zone
including the flow rate measurement.
The measured flow rate (Qmeas) is only monitoring purposes. To
directly control the flow rate, see next page (Flow rate control)
For connection of FLOW UNIT to Flow EZ
TM
simply connect the USB
cable from the FLOW UNIT to the Flow EZ
TM
.
SETTING UP
For more information about how to connect and use the Flow EZ
TM
check our webpage and Flow EZ
TM
user manual:
https://www.fluigent.com/research/instruments/pressure-flow-
controllers/lineup-series/flow-ez/
Once connected to the Flow EZ
TM
and to the fluidic system (reservoir
and chip) flow rate can be measured either directly on the Flow EZ
TM
in local mode or by using OxyGEN.
SETTING UP
Local mode:
