The beginning and end signals
(at Figure 3.1-3)
determine at the same time the position
of the first and the last fraction in the row
. The fraction position is about 2 mm after the
first edge of the white line of the beginning and end stripes.
This simple coding principle allows the use of any racks and fraction stands
or other recipients with the LAMBDA OMNICOLL fraction collector and
sampler.
3.2 Ready to use Fraction collector with the supplied tube racks
The magnetic coding bands programmed with white lines for the desired tube racks are
provided with the OMNICOLL Fraction collector.
Figure 3.2-1
Place the longer and narrower
coding band (Y-axis) on the left inner metal
frame just under the gear-bar as shown.
The first coding line should lie approximately
10cm from the front frame.
Figure 3.2-2
Pull the X-axis coding band holder
from the OMNICOLL control unit as shown.
Figure 3.2-3
Place the shorter and broader
magnetic coding band into the X-axis holder.
Figure 3.2-4
Insert the X-axis holder with coding
band into the desired slot of the control unit, with
the white coding stripes facing up.
Place the magnetic coding strip strictly horizontally into the corresponding
slot! Otherwise, the optical detectors could be damaged.
