1.3 Additional information
You should take account of the following advice to ensure that your LUMIStox 300
works correctly and reliably.
The system diskette must be inserted into the drive before
the instrument is switched on! Whenever the instrument
is moved, the diskette must first be removed from the
drive.
The LUMIStox 300 measuring instrument should not be
operated in an ambient temperature below 16
°C or above 29°C,
otherwise problems may occur with the cooling of the
measuring shaft.
Do not operate the instrument in direct sunlight!
Soiling impairs the functioning of the cuvette lowering system. For
this reason, do not pipette reagents into measuring cuvettes in
the measuring shaft. The measuring shaft should also be closed
in the <exit > mode when the measurements have been
completed. When the LUMIStox 300 is in use, the measuring shaft
is automatically closed after a 10-minute idle period. It can be
opened again by pressing any key.
Before any measurements the LUMIStox 300 should have been
switched on for the least 30 minutes so that the photomultiplier
and the cooled components are ready for operation.
