4.2.1 Dispense location

Dispense location is the position when distributing head in dispense situation, dispense needle
bottom relative to the microplate’s level. Appropriate position will prevent liquid’s overflow, in
general, user cannot change system’s default setting.
When washing no microplate appears liquid’s overflow, using this function to adjust ±2mm can
meet different requires.

13
4.2.2 Distributing head vertical position

Distributing head vertical position is the altitude that distributing head moving on the vertical
direction, this altitude can be adjusted ±2mm, when the distributing head move downwards to the
bottom of microplate, the altitude of supporting arm should lower than distributing head(it means
distributing head could fall on the bottom of microwell freely, otherwise Aspiration halfway).

4.2.3 Distributing head horizontal position

Distributing head on the relative place which in microwell of the first row, this place can be
adjusted by ±2mm, suitable position can obtain better effect of aspiration, in addition, liquid will not
spray on the wall of microwell or outside.

4.2.4 Bottom rinsing

Bottom rinsing dispenses detergent when dispense needle approaching the bottom of
microplate well, which can increase washing effect. User can turn it on or off.

4.2.5 Shaking time

Shaking will make washing effect better. Shaking time can be set between 0 to 60 seconds
freely. Shaking will be closed when time is 0.

Caution: We suggest close vibrating to avoid overflow if liquid is full in microwell.

4.2.6 Distributing head standard

Distributing head specification can choose 8 needles or 12 needles, standard is 12 needles.

8-needle is forbidden if user doesn’t equip, otherwise instrument may in abnormal status. Place
the microplate vertically when user choose 12 needles; place the microplate horizontal when user
choose 8 needles.

Caution: System need edit relative parameter setting when switch 8 needles or 12

needles. After switch, Program menu data will recover to default data.

Warning: Make sure the following is right when replace distributing head,:

A. The specification of distributing head should set correctly in system setup.

B. The direction of placing microplate should be right.
C. The displacement of distributing head is OK.
For example, you should set the specification for 8 needles in system setup when you
replace 8 needles distributing head, placing the microplate horizontally on tray, replacing
the distributing for 8 needles and begin to washing panel, otherwise, some parts of
instrument may damaged.
