Items Provided by the Customer
The customer must provide the following items for the ImageXpress Environmental Control
option installation:
A tank of pre-mixed 5% CO
2
and 95% air.
The regulator, fittings, and tubing required to deliver carbon dioxide from the tank to the
ImageXpress Systems Power and Options Controller at 1.03 to 1.38 bar (15 to 20 psi). For
more information, see to the
ImageXpress Confocal HT.ai Pre-Installation Guide .
Microplates with standard ANSI height. Most 96-well and 384-well plates are standard
height. The standard height for these plates is: 14.35 mm ± 0.25 mm (0.5650 inches ±
0.0098 inches).
Deionized water to maintain humidity.
Setting Up Environmental Control
A Molecular Devices Field Service Engineer installs the ImageXpress Environmental Control
option. After installation, environmental control can be set up for experiments.
Setting the Temperature
The temperature controller is calibrated before the instrument ships from the factory. Use the
external temperature controller to set the temperature that you want the environmental
enclosure to maintain.
To set the temperature:
1. On the front of the ImageXpress Systems Power and Options Controller, view the current
sample plate temperature.

2. To view the temperature set point, press « .
3. To increase the temperature set point, press « and 5 .
4. To decrease the temperature set point, press « and 6 .
After you release « , the current temperature in the chamber is displayed.
Note: For the ImageXpress Confocal HT.ai system, you can set the temperature with the
Instrument power switch in the On position. To regulate the temperature in the chamber,
the Sample Heater power switch must be also in the On position.
