IMPORTANT
Ensure that the pipette tip is new and in good condition.
•
0.010- inch (0.254 mm) feeler gauge
This gauge is used to set the vertical distance between the pipette tip and
top of the crosshairs mark on the platepad or accessory.
The following procedures assume that you have basic knowledge of the Bravo
teaching process and have been trained to teach the Bravo Platform.
CAUTION
To prevent potential equipment damage, ensure that the deck is clear of any
obstacles before initializing the AssayMAP Bravo Platform.
Ensure the following:
•
All Workbench profiles have been configured correctly. See
profile settings and configuration" on page
•
The Protein Sample Prep Workbench software is not open.
•
In the VWorks software, Simulation is off.
Workflow for setting the teachpoints
Step For this task...
1 In the Bravo Diagnostics dialog
box, initialize the AssayMAP 1
profile.
2 Set the teachpoint for deck
location 2 and derive the
remaining teachpoints for the
AssayMAP 1 profile.
3
Adjust the accessory location
teachpoints for the
AssayMAP 1 profile.
4 Use the AssayMAP Update
Teachpoints protocol to update
the remaining profiles.
To set the teachpoints:
1
Manually seat a 250- µL pipette tip on probe A1 (back left corner of the
Bravo 96AM Head). Ensure that the pipette tip locks into place with the
probe.
Ensure a standard platepad is installed at deck location 2.
