12. The probe extends and the main segment moves until the

trailing edge is at fluid detector 1. The pumps stop and the
analytes are measured.

13. The sample port and reagent manifold are washed while

the measurement is being made. The probe fully retracts.
The foam wash and vent valves open, allowing the wash
solution to become segmented with air, creating foam
wash. The reagent pump starts and moves foam wash to
the inner sample port. The reagent pump stops, the waste
pump starts, and the foam wash is emptied from the
sample port. This sequence repeats four times and is
followed by a solid wash segment.

14. When the measurement completes, the reagent pump starts

and moves the remaining foam wash to the inner sample
port. The reagent pump stops, the waste pump starts, and
the wash moves from the sample port to the waste. This
cleans the inside of the capillary seal and the measurement
module. The wash valve opens and a solid wash segment
moves toward the sample port during this process.
