6. Return the BioStack to its upright position and reconnect its power supply.
7. Turn on the BioStack and run a Verify Test to confirm that moving the BioStack
did not compromise its alignment with the interfacing instrument. (Refer to the

If the Verify Test fails, realign the gripper with the plate carrier using the
l
Alignment Utility and rerun the Verify Test. If the test continues to fail,
contact BioTek's Technical Assistance Center.
