Change the Adapter Plate
You can use a HiSeq flow cell or a GAIIx flow cell on the cBot. Each flow cell type requires
that a specific adapter plate is installed. Icons on the Start screen indicate which adapter
plate is installed.
NOTE
The cBot is shipped with the HiSeq adapter plate installed.
1
Open the instrument lid by gently lifting from the cutout on the front of the lid.
2
Lift the flow cell clamp.
3
Loosen the 2 captive Phillips head screws securing the adapter plate.
