104 | Appendix A: Install the Barcode Scanner
l Use the drop-down list in the BioStack Selection field to identify the
BioStack and supply station.
l De-select Limit by location count.
l Select Ignore failures.
9. Click Generate List to start the BioStack scanning process. The BioStack will
scan each plate as it moves from the output stack to the input stack.
10. Note whether the following activities occur:
l The red LED on the barcode scanner should flash as the scanner reads the
barcode on the plate at the extended carrier position.
l Precision Power will look for an Available Plate Map with the same Plate
ID as the scanned plate. As it finds a match, it moves the plate map to the
Assigned Plate Maps, i.e., the To-Do List. All three barcode plate maps
should now appear in the Assigned Plate Maps list.
If a failure occurs during the process, Precision Power puts a placeholder in the
Assigned list marked with a red error icon. A barcode scanning error results in a
placeholder name No barcode #.
l Remove the plate from the carrier, and check for a missing label, invalid
or illegible barcode, or a barcode label on the wrong side of the plate in
reference to the position of the scanner. Ensure that the barcode ID you
entered into Precision Power matches the barcode ID on the plate.
l Correct the problem, place the plate back into the output stack, and home
the BioStack. Repeat steps 6 through 9.
l If the test does not pass, contact BioTek TAC.
To Report Scanned Codes with Precision/XS
The BioStack is engaged by a Precision program through a Supply command.
BioStack-scanned barcodes are managed through the To-Do list.
Refer to Setting Up a BioStack in the Precision Power User Guide and To use the
BioStack to build the To-Do List in the Precision Power help system (Help > Help
Topics > Plate Maps > To Do List).
