pieces each. The two parallel 12-well KingFisher Duo heating block
rows installed at the factory can be changed to two parallel 6-well
heating blocks if necessary. Refer to "Changing the heating blocks" on
page 25 and "Interchangeable heating blocks" on page 26.
There are two parallel fixed 1 x 12-well elution blocks (Figure 2–2 and
Figure 2–5) with a heating and cooling option. The elution blocks can
only be used with a 12-pin magnet head. A plastic KingFisher Duo 1 x
12 elution strip can be placed onto the block.
Following the process, the elution block can be set to cool and thus act
as a cooling block to better preserve the samples.
Always when the turntable rotates as well as at the end of each protocol,
the tip moves on top of the fixed shield plate that serves as a protective

stick on the back panel (see Figure 2–4). A USB cable (Cat. no.
N04001) is supplied with the instrument.
There are two parallel USB ports, one on the back panel and one on the
front panel (Figure 2–4 and Figure 2–3), designed for:

●
Export of the run log file for traceability

The user can either use the USB port on the back panel or the front to
accept an external memory device (Figure 2–4 and Figure 2–3).
It is convenient and user friendly to use the front USB port for
importing or exporting protocols. PC connection is not necessary. You
can also export the run log file for traceability.
It is recommended to use FAT16 or FAT32 formatted USB memory
devices.
It is not recommended to use multiple drive USB memory devices that
