Nicoya OpenSPR Quick Setup Manual

OpenSPR Quick Setup Guide
1. Remove the following items from the box: OpenSPR instrument, OpenSPR power cable, USB
cable, Outlet Tube, and if provided, the laptop PC and power cable.
2. Remove all shipping tape from the outside of the OpenSPR instrument.
3. Connect the supplied Outlet Tube to the OpenSPR, ensuring that the fluidic connection is
properly secured. See the reverse page for detailed instructions. The Inlet is already installed in
the instrument, and is not removable.
4. Insert the end of the Inlet tube into the Running Buffer Container (glass bottle provided) and
the end of the Outlet tube into the Buffer Waste Container. The provided containers are there
to get you started - feel free to use your own.
5. While holding the Sample Waste Tube in place, position the Sample Waste Container such that
the Sample Waste Tube is inserted into the hole located on the side of the container. The full
fluidic setup can be seen in Figure 1.
6. Connect the OpenSPR power cable and USB cable to the back of the instrument. Connect the
power cable to a surge-protected outlet and the USB cable to the computer. Turn on the power
to the OpenSPR using the switch on the back of the instrument.
7. If you are using your own computer, install the Nicoya Lifesciences software stored on the
provided USB memory key according to Section 1.2 of the Operation Manual.
8. Start the Nicoya Lifesciences Software on the computer by double clicking on the software
icon located on the desktop.
9. Your OpenSPR is now ready to go! Review the OpenSPR Operation Manual and watch the Setup
& Training Videos before beginning your experiments. All are available on the USB memory key
