Description
Total height of the vial including cap to seal if applicable. Measured in mm.
N O T E
The sum of the plate thickness and vial height adds up to the total
height This is the point where the Injection Unit expects an object.
2 The mode to transport a vial is defined by:
• None = No transport required. Example liquid sampling.
• Magnet = Magnetic Transport. Requires magnetic vial caps. The
Injection Unit moves to the side to slide the vial off when moved away.
• Needle = Device is transported with the syringe needle inserted.
Example: special vials where a magnetic cap cannot be crimped, e.g.
Vacutainer.
If magnetic transport is selected, the distance can be defined to move the
1
syringe slider up (Z-direction), lifting up the vial by magnetic force.
Measured in mm.
1 If magnetic transport is selected, the distance can be defined to move the
Injection Unit to the side, Y-direction, to slide the vial off. Measured in mm.
If a Barcode Reader is installed, the mode has to be set for AutoFix.
None = No Barcode Reader option requested for this Tray Type.
A tolerance window to give a plus/minus range (expressed in mm) where
the Injection Unit must expect an object.
If the value of this item is > 0, this is a relative detection mode and the
sensor from the Injection Unit needle guide is active.
If the value of this item is set to 0 the sensor of the needle guide is turned
off and the syringe slider moves to an absolute value, Z-axis position as
specified in the object.
The distance to lift up the syringe slider before the Y-, Z-axes assembly
moves across the unit can be specified, expressed in mm.
The maximum allowed Needle Penetration can be defined as a safety so
that the user cannot destroy the needle tip by going too far down. The Tray
Type is prepared for a specific vial size; this value is therefore unique to this
combination. The maximum needle penetration must not exceed the length
of the syringe needle, considering the loss due to needle guide, etc.. Typical
needle length is 51 mm, maximum penetration must not exceed 48 mm.
This item is identical to that used on the User Level or, if available, as a
method parameter of a local cycle. The value defined on these levels is
mirrored to the Extended User level.
