Activating The RUN Cycle
On the CS model, start the RUN cycle for either the Open or Closed Mode by
pressing the Touch Plate.
NOTE: The door Assembly must be closed for the Closed Mode RUN cycle to be
activated.
On the SL model, Start the RUN cycle for Open Mode by pressing the Touch Plate.
Start the RUN cycle for Closed Mode by pressing the [START LOADER] key in the
RUN menu. For additional information, refer to Sample Loader Description, Soft
Keys in Section 13: Sample Loader.
Orderly Stops
The CS model, whether in Open or Closed Mode, automatically halts after each
sample has been processed unless the Touch Plate is pressed again to start a new
RUN cycle.
The SL model in Open Mode automatically halts after each sample has been
processed unless the Touch Plate is pressed again to start a new RUN cycle.
The SL model in Closed Mode automatically halts when no more racks are detected
on the load side and the last track has passed under the Tower to the Unload side.
Emergency Stops
To immediately halt all operation of the instrument, do one of the following:
1. Turn OFF the main power switch, located in the upper left corner of the back
panel.
2. Push the window section of the Tower Cover toward the instrument to release
the latches and break the safety interlock sensor connection. As soon as the
connection is broken, the instrument halts. It is not necessary to remove the
Tower Cover to stop operations. This method applies to both CS and SL
models. In addition, the CS model has a safety interlock sensor attached to
the swivel door mechanism which holds the sample tube.
