Understanding the Maestro Operational Interface Mopec designed the Maestro to be highly customizable in its construction to meet all types of process flows and procedural preferences in the pathology lab. The touchscreen display allows for variable user interface controls to support the many configurations available on the Maestro.
The Maestro’s Actions screen is the main page when the unit is powered on. ¥ The Maestro’s Actions page is the home screen where the user can quickly navigate to any feature installed on the grossing station. The Actions page is set up in a manner that categorizes the main features into easily accessible buttons.
Front Air System (FAS) On and Off toggles. If the units weren’t configured with one or all these features, it will display “Not Installed”. The patented FAS system is a key safety feature on Mopec laboratory equipment. The principle of operation is simple and safe.

A flow sensor is a standard feature on all Maestros. The flow sensor is integrated into the Maestro hood to provide a method to alarm if airflow in the facility has been impeded or adjusted below a set threshold. This setting is only intended to provide an alert.
Page 31
The Recirculation option is intended for facilities that do not have available HVAC exhaust flow available for temporary use or in limited-use environments. The backdraft air is pulled through the hood by variable-speed blowers and cycled through filters in an effort to remove particulates and fumes before exhausting back into the room at the top of the unit.
6.1.5 Date and Time Adjustment To change the Date and Time you must be logged in as a manager (reference 6.1.4) and. Once logged in press and hold either the date or time on the display. A popup will come that will allow you to make the indicated change.

the formalin level observation screen. This screen will also show when the dispense pump button is pressed. This screen can aid users by visually seeing the amount of formalin in the dispensing system. The Formalin Dispense system on a Maestro utilizes a siphon hose and a transfer pump to fill up a reservoir tank located in the hood of the unit. This enables a very controllable gravity-fed dispense from a simple lever pull on the spigot.
To start pumping simply hold down the green Dispense Pump button located just inside the knee panel. The ¥ system is equipped with level sensors and will turn off the pump when full. The user can visually see if the tank is Low, Partially Full, or Full by viewing the tank Level Screen.
6.1.9 Alarms Button Once the operator selects the Alarms button on the home page you will be presented with a screen showing all the possible alarm conditions. This screen helps notify the user of what function has an active alarm. Near each alarm feature title, there is a gray notification light when the function doesn’t have an active alarm.
6.1.10 User Manual Button The User Manual Button takes the users to a screen with a 3D barcode with the Mopec logo. If users scan the barcode with a smartphone, it will provide a link to a web address having the latest Maestro product manual. This can be a great feature to look up how a specific feature functions.
The Factory login is only to be used at the Mopec manufacturing facility to configure units during the manufacturing process or by Mopec service technicians in the field. Below are the login credentials for the Operator and the Manager. Installation Service User Manual Maestro series MB1000-MAN Rev.4...

CAUTION Risk of Pinching or Crushing Hazard. Ensure that hands, fingers, and other body parts are clear of moving parts and mechanisms during opera}on and adjustment of the eleva}ng worksta}on.

Foot Pedal Hot/Cold Mixing Valve The foot pedal is mounted to a floor plate that can be positioned within reach by the user. ¥ A single tap of the pedal turns the hot/cold mixed water on. ¥ Tap the pedal a second time to turn it off. ¥...
The Syphon Hose is intended to be connected to your formalin supply container (cut factory zip tie to uncoil ¥ hose). Mopec cubitainers utilize a quick disconnect. Insert the connector and pull to make sure it is latched. If you are pumping from a formalin barrel remove the supplied quick disconnect fitting and directly insert the end of the siphon hose into the barrel.
An empty system will typically transfer 5 gallons when filling. An alarm will alert users when the tank becomes low. ¥ Mopec recommends refilling the dispensing tank after usage to reduce the crystallization buildup on the float ¥ level sensor.
The drain hose is supplied long enough to allow the collection dolly to be pulled out from under the knee space ¥ before disconnecting. This will create a small fluid trap if left at the factory cut length on the collection line. o If your preference is to eliminate the fluid trap simply trim the line back short enough that the fluid drains completely into the carboy.
6.2.11 BMS (Building Management System) Connection Mopec BMS (Building Management System) connection, option MB1022, is a simple output signal intended to be connected to a hospital remote management system. The function is a dry contact relay output that is triggered by an alert condition on the Maestro.
