Note for dosing and calibration

!
Make sure that liquid drops to not come into contact with the optical components. Do not
change the position of the MSA on the sample or calibration plate once dosing is complete.
After the measurement or calibration, raise it without changing its position.
4.2

Connecting the MSA

!
There must be liquid in the cartridges before the MSA is connected. Otherwise, it will not be
possible to build up the working pressure in the dosing unit.

Connect the USB plug on the MSA's main cable to a USB port on the computer.
The MSA will initialize and in doing so build up the working pressure step-by-step.

If initialization does not start, connect the second USB plug to another USB port.
