Description
For automated sipper workflows, defines the volume to
draw for each measurement. The sip volume must be
greater than 0.
Use sufficient volume to push any previous solution out of
the flow cell. When the cell is filled, the sample material
should also fill at least 8 cm of the inlet tube in front of the
flow cell to prevent air bubbles from entering the cell. (Use
an air gap if the sample material is limited.) Check the
system for cross-contamination before taking
measurements.
For automated sipper workflows, specifies a delay before
the sample is measured to allow air bubbles to dissipate.
Enter 0 to skip this step.
For automated sipper workflows that include a "draw air"
step, defines how long to draw air through the system to
move a small sample volume to the flow cell. The correct
setting depends on the Sip volume setting and the length
of the inlet tube. Typically, draw sufficient air to push the
sample into the cell but leave enough sample material to
fill at least 8 cm of the inlet tube in front of the flow cell.

For automated sipper workflows that include a "rinse"
step, specifies how long to draw the rinse solution through
the system. Enter 0 to skip this step.
