DSX™ System Service Manual 5-1
Chapter 5 Manual Operation of the System
5.1 Overview
The DSX Automated ELISA System is normally operated via an assay protocol in which the
various steps in the program are performed to execute the desired assay. If desired, the service
engineer can perform individual operations (for example, ejecting the reader plate or moving
the pipette) on a manual basis to test the various components.
To access the manual mode of operation, press DSX Manual Control… on the Tools menu. As
an alternative, the manual mode of operation can be accessed if the system is not properly
initialized (see the Overview in Chapter 2 on page 2-1).
CAUTION: UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, IT IS POSSIBLE TO
DAMAGE THE SYSTEM IN MANUAL MODE (A MESSAGE TO THAT
EFFECT IS PRESENTED WHEN MANUAL MODE IS ACCESSED). SOME
SAFEGUARDS THAT ARE BUILT INTO THE STANDARD OPERATING
PROGRAM ARE NOT OPERATIONAL IN MANUAL MODE AND THE
ENGINEER SHOULD MAKE SURE THAT COMPONENTS ARE NOT
DRIVEN PAST THEIR PHYSICAL LIMITATION.
