Prerequisites
• An application has been selected.
6.7 Shifting the movement range of the capillary
6.7.1 Extending the movement range into the dynamic range
When the movement range of the capillary is not sufficient, the joystick can be moved into
the dynamic range. By doing that you can move the capillary further into the required
direction.
1. Move the joystick into the dynamic range.
2. Keep the joystick in the dynamic range until the capillary has reached the desired
position.
The further you move the joystick forwards or backwards, the faster the capillary will
move.
6.7.2 Uncoupling and resetting the joystick
When the current movement range of the capillary is not in the correct position, the
joystick movement can be uncoupled from the capillary movement. By doing that you can
reset the joystick and move the capillary further into the required direction.
1. Hold the joystick button.
2. Move the joystick in the opposite direction.
3. Release the joystick.
The capillary can now be moved further into the required direction.
6.8 Capillary positions
To secure the capillary when moving a slide and to move back to the same work position
you can store the positions. Depending on the application, a maximum of five positions
can be stored.
As soon as the capillary leaves a stored position, the filled circle is displayed as an empty
circle, to show that this position is now stored. If no positions are stored, the status field
will be empty.
1. Press the menu key.
2. Select the Speed menu.
3. Select the desired parameter.
4. Change the value.
