5.5.4 Change station type
Load/unload station
→ → → → → Reagent station
• Load stations L33 - L35 and unload stations E26 - E28 can be defined as
reagent stations, if needed.
• Both station types must be redefined station by station (one station at a
time), starting from the ‘center’; i.e., if you wish to convert load and/or
unload stations into reagent stations, you must start by converting sta-
tions E28 or L33, respectively.
• The CHANGE STATION TYPE button (5) only becomes available to the
stations located further towards the outside after stations E28, or L33,
respectively, have been converted into reagent stations.
The same, in reverse order, applies for converting stations back into
load / unload stations.
• Press CHANGE STATION TYPE (5) to access the STATION TYPE
CHOICE menu.
Proceed further as described in
chapter 5.5.3 .

Tap water station
→ → → → → Reagent station
• It is also possible to convert the water stations W7 - W12 into reagent
stations, if needed. No particular order must be followed in that case.
• Follow the same procedure as described above. In addition, however,
the yellow tap water containers must exchanged for reagent contain-
ers to prevent reagents from spilling.
If the RMS is on, all reagent stations will be registered, includ-
ing those that have been converted into reagent stations later.
