Do one of the following:
SAMPLE ORDERING SCREEN 3 appears. While at
this screen, do the following:
䉴 Pipet the correct type and amount of sample
material (as chosen on Sample Ordering Screen
2) into a sample tube (tube without barcode label,
from the reagent kit).
䉴 Identify the tube by attaching your own barcode
label or writing a number on the tube with a per-
manent marker.
䉴 Put the filled sample tube in position 1 on row 1
of the Tube Rack.
Note: It is recommended to use the
appropriate row in the tube rack for original
sample tubes, if suitable for these tubes
(e.g. max. 15 ml Falcon tubes).
䉴 On SAMPLE ORDERING SCREEN 3, touch Sample ID field 1. In that field, enter the ID of Sample 1 (i.e., the one
you just put in the rack) by either scanning the (self-attached) barcode or using the virtual keyboard to type the
ID number. (Touch the Keyboard button to access the keyboard.)
䉴 (optional) In the Comment field, you may enter
additional information about Sample 1. (Touch the
field to highlight it, then use the virtual keyboard.)
䉴 Repeat the above sample placement and
identification steps for each sample to be purified
(e.g., for Sample position 2, 3, …, 8).
Result: As you fill in the "Sample-ID" field for each
sample, the corresponding position in the reagent
layout will change from green (active) to dark blue
(installed in instrument).
