whole stack or a specific number of plates
at runtime: use the BioStack controls on
the run screen.
Fill the BioStack checkbox in the main
view to enable the BioStack action
buttons and use them to design a
protocol that delivers and retrieves
plates.
5. Verify the setup: perform a protocol with 1 or 2 plates.See How to define a
BioStack protocol on the facing page.
At the start of the day, power up the BioStack first, and then the 405 TS. BIOSTACK2WR:

Robotics integrators: CAD drawings of the physical dimensions of the 405 TS are
available upon request. Contact BioTek customer service.
Technical Note: Only one of the two communication ports (COM port) on the
instrument can be used at a time. They cannot be used simultaneously. You
can use USB to connect the 405 TS to the computer or the RS232 serial port to
connect to a BioStack or similar robotic device. But you cannot use both ports
simultaneously, i.e. make sure only one cable is plugged in at a time.
