24 BD FACSCanto II Instructions for Use
Controls
The fluidics cart connects to the flow cytometer unit by way of cables and tubing.
When you turn on the power to the cytometer, the fluidics cart powers on also.
Under ordinary circumstances, you do not need to adjust any of the switches on
the cart’s power panel. Leave the auxiliary air supply switch off unless the cart
has been attached to an in-house air supply by BD Biosciences service personnel.
Leave the cart circuit breaker on at all times.
