Calibrate NovoCyte Fluidics Station II
NovoCyte Fluidics Station II is calibrated at the factory and should be ready to use
when connected to the instrument after installation. However, in some cases when
there is a need to recalibrate the fluidics station after shipment and movement
(e.g. when a false warning about the liquid level in the reagent containers is
observed), follow the procedures below to recalibrate the fluidics station.
Calibrate Fluidics Station function is only available when Calibrate Fluidics Station
privilege is enabled. Refer to NovoExpress Software Guide for instructions to enable
this privilege.
1 Click Instrument > Operation > Calibrate Fluidics Station in the NovoExpress
software.
