Once the Q-View Imager Pro has been recognized,
click Continue again, and a dialog box where the
Q-View Imager Pro can be named will appear. When
you are finished naming, click Continue to focus the
imager.
Focusing the Q-View Imager Pro
Open the Q-View Imager Pro tray by pressing the
button on the front of the device. Place the 96-well
focusing plate (included) on the plate tray and retract
the tray. Use the + and – buttons on the software
to bring the words printed on the focusing plate into
focus if needed. You can click on the image to zoom in
or out. When zoomed in, right-click and drag to scroll.
Light leak Check
Upon completing the Q-View Imager Pro installation it
may be necessary to ensure there are no light leaks.
To perform this test remove any plates from the
Q-View Imager Pro, ensure the tray is retracted, and
capture an image. The average pixel intensity of the
image should be less than 500 PI. If the pixel intensity
is above this specification, please contact customer
support at Quansys Biosciences 1-888-QUANSYS
(782-6797) or techsupp@quansysbio.com.
Acquire Dark Field
Dark Field Image Acquisition minimizes background
noise in subsequent plate images. Remove any plates
from the Q-View Imager Pro, close the imager tray,
and click OK on the software. In the Settings menu
click on Administration, then select Manage Imagers.
Select the correct imager and press Acquire Dark Field.
The process will take approximately five minutes.
