2.4.5 Air after Pull
This is the duration of time after the pull that the Humidity Control Chamber surrounding
your filament is purged with dry air. This helps to remove humidity and control for the
ambient conditions in your lab. The default setting is 5 seconds. Time settings between 5-20
seconds are reasonable.
2.5 Program List
Each program has associated notes
and this text will appear in the
Program Edit Screen when that
program is highlighted. The
detailed notes (if any) that have
been written can help to identify
the program: to whom it belongs,
and what type of pipette it will pull.
Pre-installed programs from the
factory and Sutter Cookbook
programs have pre-written notes
that detail the filament and glass
the program is intended for and
lists the recommended heat setting,
for example, “Heat = Ramp + 5”
Figure 2-11. Program List.
Use the Dial to bring a Program to the top of the List where it will be highlighted in green.
At this stage, you can [Open] the program, [Copy] & [Paste] the program, or [Delete] the
program. You will be asked to press [delete] again to clear the program, or you can press
[Cancel] if change your mind.
NOTE: If a program has been LOCKED, you cannot delete the program or copy & paste a
program into that program location. Return to the menu screen to Lock/Unlock a program.
2.5.1 Sutter Pipette Cookbook Feature
Use the Sutter Pipette Cookbook feature to search for, select and install one of over
100 pre-designed programs stored in the P-1000. After installing a program and pulling a
pipette, you can adjust the settings to modify and fine-tune the program. There are many
standard Programs stored on the P-1000, which can be modified to serve your purpose.
When you open the Cookbook, you are asked to specify the filament type and size installed in
your puller. The 2.5 x 2.5mm box filament is installed at the factory, and you will be asked to
select the dimensions (OD/ID) of the glass you will be using.
