Eject to end volume
The whole cylinder content is ejected via the given port. In contrast to
the function Eject to stop, the piston moves only to the maximum vol-
ume mark, i.e. until it has executed 10'000 pulses. This command should
be used for pipetting functions for emptying the cylinder.
Exchange position
With this function the cylinder is filled via the given port first. The valve
disc is then turned to Port 2 and the dosing unit can be removed from
the dosing drive.
Change port
With Change port the valve disc is only moved to the given port; no
piston movement takes place.
Compensate
As the dosing units are exchangeable, the coupling of the Dosino piston
rod (spindle) has a low mechanical tolerance that can be noticed when
the piston changes its direction of movement. This tolerance can be
compensated for with the Compensate function. A short piston move-
ment is first made in the same direction as the previous movement, which
is then followed by a piston movement in the reverse direction.
Port
The port where each function is to be carried out needs to be defined for
each liquid handling command.
