5. Before loading the vial in the carousel, shake off any liquid that has

been forced into the cap socket.

NOTE Do not use laboratory wipes to blot liquid from the

cap sockets; wipes leave fibers which can
accumulate in the liquid flow path and cause
increased backpressure.

3.2

Turning on the Power

To turn on the autosampler power, press the power switch on the Dionex AS-DV
rear panel (see

Figure 2-6

At power-up, the sampling needle is homed (the needle is raised) and the carousel
is homed (vial position 1 is moved under the sampling head tower).

3.3

Loading the Vial Carousel

Raise the Dionex AS-DV top cover and press the

Carousel Release

button on the inside of the

chassis. Pressing the

Carousel Release

button is

required for two purposes:

•

To disengage the carousel from the motor.

•

To reset vial memory (clear presence, vial size,
and volume remaining information). Before
starting a run, always press

Carousel Release

to reset the vial information.

1. If you are using 0.5 mL vials, insert a vial adapter onto the vial.

2. Load the vials into the carousel. You can place the vials in any order. The

Chromeleon sequence (see

Section 3.6

) determines the order in which vials

are sampled. If you are using a reserved range of positions for rinse vials (see

Section B-8

), place the rinse vials in the designated positions.

Before starting a run, always press the

Carousel Release

button to

disengage the carousel and reset the vial information. After loading
the vials in the carousel, press the

Carousel Release

button again to

engage the carousel.
