Language selection

From the Main Menu, use the touch wheel to scroll to the Toolbox and press OK. Use the “Language”

option to select the desired language.

Attaching GRIPTIPS

Press the pipette into the GRIPTIPS of the appropriate size until you hear and feel a click indicating

that a seal has been achieved. When loading GRIPTIPS using a multichannel pipette, slowly rock

the pipette from one side to the other side to ensure the proper seal is achieved.

Selecting a pipetting mode

With your electronic pipette, you have the choice of building protocols by selecting from a menu of

predefined programming modes, or you can create custom multi-stepped protocols.

Pipetting mode

Description

Pipet

Liquid transfers when aspirate and dispense volumes are equal.

Repeat Dispense

Dispense multiple aliquots of the same volume.

Sample Dilute

Aspirate two liquids divided by an air gap, followed by dispense.

Pipet/Mix

Multiple mixing by aspiration and dispensing of defined volume.

Manual Pipet

Control the aspiration and dispensing up to the set volume.

Reverse Pipet

Liquid transfers of viscous or high vapor pressure liquids.

Variable Dispense

Dispense multiple aliquots of different volumes.

Multi Aspirate

Aspirate multiple aliquots of different volumes.

Sample Dilute/Mix

Aspirate two liquids divided by an air gap, followed by dispense and mix.

Serial Dilution

Aspirate a transfer volume followed by dispense and mix sequences.

Custom

Allows to create and store of up to 40 multi-stepped pipetting protocols.

From the Main Menu, use the touch wheel to scroll to your desired function-

based programming mode. Press OK to enter the mode and to start defining

parameters.

Setting/changing variables

Scroll to Edit and

press OK.

A list of editable steps is

displayed.

Select a step and press OK.

Use the touch wheel to set the

value and press OK.

Press to save your settings.

Pipette’s toolbox

The Toolbox provides a variety of options, as setting personal preferences like the touch wheel spin

sensitivity, calibration, computer connectivity and device information.

Running a program

Insert the GRIPTIPS into the liquid to be transferred. Press and release RUN

to aspirate the volume selected in the first step (marked with a triangle on the

Run screen).

Your pipette will prompt you to press RUN at each successive step.

Two step blowout

During aspiration, the piston of your electronic pipette moves up (1).

During dispensing, the piston returns to the initial position (0). During the last

dispense of a program, it automatically moves further down (2) and blows the

remaining liquid from the tip (Blowout).

When the piston returns to the initial position (0), a small amount of air is

aspirated, provided the tip is no longer immersed in the liquid (Blowin).

Note: Manually delay the blowin by holding RUN pressed during the last dispense. Remove the

tips from the vessel and release RUN to start blowin.

Tip spacing (VOYAGER only)

In each pipetting mode, the available tip spacing positions are displayed at

the bottom of the screen. The current position is highlighted.

At any program step press or to move the tip position to the next spacing.

To modify the tip spacing positions, go to the “Tip Spacing” menu,

accessible from the main menu of the pipette or within every pipetting mode.

Select the positions to be changed (first, middle, last) and press OK. Use 

and to move the tips to the desired position, click OK and then Save .

Equipment Disposal

Electronic pipettes must not be disposed of with unsorted municipal waste.

Dispose of electronic pipettes in accordance with the laws and regulations in your area

governing disposal of devices.

In certain regions and countries, e.g. in EU member states, the distributor is obliged to

take back this product free of charge at the end of life. Please contact your local
