marks, scratches, dirt or fluid residue on the mirror. If a repeat cleaning is required,
dispose of these cloths and prepare another set.

Use a compressed air cannister to remove any dust or dirt from the white reflector
surface. Do not use a liquid cleaner on this area as the surface coating is sensitive. If a
noticeable spill is on the white surface, contact your Beckman Coulter Service
representative.

Close the safety doors and select Restart
the error lane for tube detection issues. If tubes continue to route to the error lane,
repeat the cleaning process as necessary.

affected lane using Function code 97 and contact your Beckman Coulter Service
representative.

Repeat the process for the other lane once the initial cleaning process is completed, and
the lane is operational (if necessary).
Unload the Outlet Module
The Outlet module Transfer Arm removes sample tubes from the sample tube carriers and
then places them into Outlet racks that you remove from the system. Each rack is keyed to
fit in the Outlet rack drawer in only one direction.
Most of the time, you use blue Routine racks for Outlet rack positions. However, sometimes
you can use other rack types for Outlet rack positions. For example, if you need an outlet
rack for offline review and then remapping back for storage afterwards, you can use a
yellow Remap rack for that rack position.
When an Outlet rack or subsection is full, the system activates a flashing beacon, an audible
alarm, and turns the Outlet control panel red. The Transfer Arm completes the current
operation and then moves to the Home position.
Important
Perform a rack exchange on all Outlet positions before you shut down the system.
When you restart Power Express, it regards all Outlet positions as empty. Any tubes
present in Outlet racks cause errors.
