This document describes how to use the PIPETMAX Alignment Utility,

including how to install the alignment head.

The PIPETMAX Alignment Utility is installed as part of

the TRILUTION® micro Software installation or via the

PIPETMAX Package Updater.

Run the PIPETMAX Alignment Utility to ensure proper alignment. It is only

necessary when setting up the instrument for the first time, or if instructed to

do so by your local Gilson representative.

Connect Alignment Cable and Align Clips

NOTICE

If the alignment head is installed, but the

cabling is not connected and the alignment

starts, it may damage the alignment head.

1. If your PIPETMAX does not have a rotating cover and

uses the external safety interlock sensor, disconnect

the BOTTOM terminal block connector from the

input/output ports on the rear panel.

2. Pass the end of the alignment cable with pre-wired

connector through the access hole at the back of

PIPETMAX.

3. The connector is labeled BOTTOM because it connects

to the bottom set of input/output ports on the rear

panel of PIPETMAX. Make the connection.

4. The clips to secure the tip racks on the tray can

interfere with the alignment. Ensure that the clips ( ) are positioned as shown in the

diagram below, and that the thumbscrews have been tightened.

alignment will stop when it finishes its current action and revert back to the original offset

values.

To stop PIPETMAX immediately, press the red STOP button on the front of PIPETMAX.

Remove Alignment Head

Reconnect External Safety Interlock Sensor

If your PIPETMAX does not have a rotating cover, it requires

an external safety interlock. The external safety interlock was

disconnected prior to running the alignment. Reconnect the

BOTTOM terminal block connector to the input/output ports on

the rear panel.

Troubleshooting

If you see the following message, remove and reinstall the removable tray and then rerun the

PIPETMAX Alignment Utility.

If you encounter any trouble or have concerns while running the alignment, please do not

hesitate to contact your local Gilson representative. Specific contact information can be

found at www.gilson.com/contactus.
