6.2 Operation as ST5020 – CV5030 workstation (continued):
Fig. 43
• After the coverslipping operation, the empty
specimen slide holder is transferred back onto
the discharge chute (81) of the transfer station.
The display shows "READY".
• If the discharge chute is already occupied
with two empty specimen slide holders, an
additional "TS FULL" message is shown on the
display of the CV5030.
• With a third specimen slide holder, the dis-
charge chute is completely occupied and
the robotic coverslipper emits a signal tone,
accompanied by the messages "TS FULL" and
"PAUSED". The robotic coverslipper is now in
pause mode. The specimen slide holders now
have to be removed, as otherwise work cannot
continue. To do so, confirm the signal tone with
the RESPOND button. All empty specimen slide
holders must be removed from the discharge
chute and the drawer of the transfer station
must be closed. Then, press the START but-
ton, so that the "READY" message appears on
the display. Transfer from the slide stainer to
the robotic coverslipper is now possible once
again (77).

Basically, we do not recommend man-
ual loading of the CV5030 in worksta-
tion operation, as this can impair or
stop the program flow of the ST5020.
• If it is necessary to insert a specimen slide
holder into the loading bath manually for cov-
erslipping, the empty specimen slide holder
must also be removed from the loading drawer
manually. The empty specimen slide holder is
not conveyed automatically into the transfer
station and thus onto the discharge chute.
