Chapter 5:

Installing a BioTek® BioStack™ Plate Stacker

Introduction

This chapter describes how to install a BioTek BioStack Automated Plate Stacking System. When
connected to the Odyssey Sa Imager, the plate stacker is controlled by the Image Studio software,
allowing up to 50 microplates to be scanned during an express run. Installation requires the Plate
Stacker Install Kit (LI-COR, P/N 9250-14), which is used to lock the BioStack Plate Stacker in
position at the correct height and distance from the Odyssey Sa Imager. It also includes
communication cables to connect the two instruments. The components of the installation kit are
shown below.

Components:

1) BioStack stand.

2) Leveling and

alignment fixture
with storage
thumb-
screw.

3) Thumbscrews to

connect the
BioStack Plate
Stacker to the
stand.

4) Locator clamp.

5) USB cable and

calibration ruler
(not pictured).

Installation Summary

1) Connect the BioStack Plate Stacker to the stand.

2) Connect the power cables and communication cables.

3) Level the Odyssey Sa Imager.

4) Install the BioStack locator clamp around the front legs of the Odyssey Sa Imager.

5) Adjust the height of the BioStack Plate Stacker.

6) Level the BioStack Plate Stacker.
