14 System Installation
8.1. Ensure that the autosampler is in a safe position. An example of an unsafe location would be if the fork is
in a compromised position where it will crash into something if the autosampler attempts to move home.
• If this is the scenario, use the arrows to move the autosampler to a safe location before selecting “OK”.
CAUTION
Use caution when manually controlling the X, Y, and Z Controls. There are three distances for the
autosampler. If you need to move the autosampler a short distance, select Ultra-ne. If you need to move
it a moderate distance, select Fine, and select Coarse if you need to move a large distance. You can hold
down the arrows for constant movement. There are three coordinates: X moves the autosampler from left
to right, Y moves the autosampler forward and back, and Z moves the autosampler up and down.
8.2. Select “OK” to home the autosampler. The automation will rise up, towards the display, then to the left and
then backwards.
WARNING
NEVER place hands or any object into the area containing the rack while the EDGE is running a method or
while the autosampler is in motion. Only load or unload rack when the EDGE is in the idle state.
8.3. Select “OK” to open the actuator.
