Turn on the Robot power before starting the automation control
software.
If using CLARA, open the CLARA Execution Manager, load
(chain) the applications you want to run, create the system, and
initialize the instruments. See the CLARA User's Manual for
details.
If using iLink PRO, the instruments initialize automatically when
you start the iLink PRO software. See the iLink PRO User's
Manual for instructions on starting and initializing resources in
the iLink PRO software.
The automation control software starts the Robot and Stack
Storage or iLink PRO Storage software in Remote mode.
Do not use or close the Robot, Stack Storage, or iLink PRO
Storage software while it is running in remote mode. The
automation control software must have complete control over
the instrument software during application execution. The
automation control software opens and closes the ICPs and
Adapters at the appropriate times.
Once a run is started, do not add or remove plates from
instruments or racks, and do not interfere with the movement of
the Twister II arm.
