Changing Reagent Concentration
You can set a station’s “calculated” concentration value. Tap the station’s Conc. cell. Enter the new
concentration in the keypad.
Setting Station States
All users can change station states (Full, Empty, In use, Dry, and Not molten) in the Reagent
stations screen.
For reagent bottles you should not normally need to do this – you update the bottle states when
you remove and replace bottles and then the software tracks the state automatically. Change bottle
station states only if the wrong state is displayed or you want to make a full bottle unavailable for
use (by setting it to In use).
For wax chambers you must change the station state in the Reagent stations screen as a normal
part of wax replacement.
To change a station state tap the station’s State cell and select the appropriate icon in the dialog
box.
See 3.3.1 Status Area for detailed information on reagent station states.
WARNING
Do not alter the concentration of a used reagent unless you are able to verify the actual
concentration. If the concentration is incorrect a reduction in tissue processing quality or
damage to the tissue sample may result.

WARNING
Ensure you set the station state to the actual condition of the station. An incorrect reagent
station state may cause fluid leaks or abandoned processing runs.
