About this topic
The Bravo gripper can pick up labware and move it from one location to another on
the Bravo deck. If the Bravo Platform includes a gripper, you use the controls on the
Gripper tab to configure the gripper movements.
The red Stop motors button does not perform an immediate stop. The Bravo head
can continue to move in the same direction at the same speed. To perform an
emergency stop, press the red button on the emergency-stop pendant.
Procedures
You can use the Gripper tab to fine-tune the gripper movements using the following
procedures:
• “Verifying the gripper setup” on page 41
• “Using the gripper controls” on page 96
