Transport Unit Self Alignment
Transport Unit Self Alignment
The transport unit alignment with the transport unit and the well-plate tray is
required to compensate for larger deviations in positioning the needle carrier
assembly.
The transport unit self alignment is required after disassembling the system or
when you exchange the transport unit, the needle carrier assembly or the MTP
main board.
This function is in the diagnose screen of the ChemStation or the Control
Module.
When is a Transport Unit Self Alignment Necessary?
The sample transport self alignment is required after disassembling the
module or when you exchange:
• The transport unit.
• The needle/capillary carrier assembly.
• The MTP main board.
WARNING
The sample transport self alignment requires one of the 4-well-plate trays (Part
Number: G1364-84501), but well plates MUST NOT be installed.
If the Transport Unit Self Alignment is started with well plates on the tray, the
alignment procedure is aborted WITHOUT error message.
How to perform a Transport Unit Self Alignment?
Steps Comments
1 If the transport unit has been exchanged or if it
is very badly misaligned, set the 8-bit
configuration switch to the Forced Cold Start
Configuration.
For details see: “Forced Cold Start” in the
Fraction Collectors Service Manual.
2 Install the 4-well-plate tray (G1364-84501) IMPORTANT: Remove all plates!
