Electrode Cartridge Tests
Diagnostics Test Purpose
HV Stability and
Accuracy Test
Tests high voltage accuracy and stability of all 16 high voltage
power supplies and the high voltage controller. Unused chip
(DNA, RNA, or protein) required.
HV Accuracy Test
(On-Load)
Check of channel-reference diode in transmission direction.
Short Circuit Test Checks for instrument leak currents using an empty chip.
Note: the limits of this test specify an ambient temperature of
25 °C and relative humidity less than or equal to 60 %. Higher
temperatures or relative humidity could result in a leak current.
Electrode/Diode Test Checks the photo diode and current-versus-voltage
performance of the bioanalyzer. Electrode/diode test chip
required.
Optics Test Checks for proper alignment of internal optics and proper
function of the laser and LED.
Electrophoresis
Autofocus Test
Checks the focusing capability of the optical system.
Autofocus test chip required.
Laser Stability Test Measurement of stability of red laser signal.
