IMPORTANT
Once the TRIO MP-235 system has been unpacked, remove the shipping tape from the
various locations on the TRIO MP-235/M electromechanical micromanipulator. The shipping
tape must be removed before operating the TRIO MP-235 system. In the event that you need
to transport the TRIO MP-235/M in the future, reapply 2 to 3-inch pieces of masking tape to
the same locations. Once the tape has been removed, handle the TRIO MP-235/M with care.
The mechanisms can be damaged if any of the axes are inadvertently moved without the tape
in place.
1.3 Overview
1.3.1 Features
ƒ
Three independent axes – 50mm travel in the diagonal axis for coaxial pipette movement,
and 25mm travel in X and Y axes. Travel for the virtual Z axis utilizes a cosine function of
the angle chosen, using the X and D axes.
ƒ
Sub-micron 100nm resolution
ƒ
Digital display indicates coordinates in relative or absolute
ƒ
User-friendly, fanless compact controller with ROE preserves bench space
ƒ
Push button control of multiple functions – work, home, Lock, pulse and relative
ƒ
Robotic home and work position moves for easy automated pipette exchange
1.3.2 Description
While the axes provide X and Y orthogonal motion typical of most motorized manipulators,
Sutter has introduced a diagonal axis with the TRIO MP-235 so one can move the electrode
coaxially at the exact desired angle of approach. This axis also significantly extends the range
of travel (50mm) for the system.
The TRIO MP-235’s ROE provides fine control of electrode position and the rate of rotation
of ROE dials for each axis determines the speed of travel. The finest step size is less than
100nm. Five conveniently located buttons on the ROE provide control of all the basic
functions you will need in normal operation (Work, Home, Lock, Relative, and Pulse).
Press and hold WORK (for 3 seconds) to quickly store a work position, tap HOME to move all
axes to an initial location that is useful for changing electrodes, or press and hold the HOME
button (for 3 seconds) to memorize a new HOME position.
When you are ready to record data, the motor drive electronics can be suppressed by pressing
the LOCK button. In the LOCK mode, the display turns red and ROE input is locked out to
avoid any accidental motion.
