The panel has two lights as well as the Interrupt button. From the top
of the panel these are:
• Assay Running (Locked)—Yellow light
The FLIPR
®
Tetra System is performing a task. The upper and
lower doors are locked and cannot be opened until the task
finishes or is halted using the Interrupt button.
• Assay Finished (Unlocked)—Green light
No tasks are being run and it is safe to open the upper and
lower instrument doors.
The Interrupt button is an override button to halt all tasks, so you can
access the instrument. If pressed the yellow light flashes until the
system has reached a safe state to open the doors, then the green light
comes on.
CAUTION! The Interrupt button immediately ends the experiment and
should only be used in emergencies. Interrupting the instrument while
an assay in progress will almost always result in the loss of the plate
being run. If this button is pressed, the yellow ‘busy’ light will flash until
the instrument is safely unlatched. The system may need to be
reinitialized by selecting Reset from the Instrument menu prior to
resuming normal instrument function.
