6. Workstation operation
6.4 Interrupting workstation operation
• The PAUSE and STOP buttons have mostly the
same functions outlined in Chapter 5.6 .
• If the coverslipping operation is interrupted
using the STOP button, the coverslipper must
be initialized. To do so, press the START button.
• After the coverslipping operation is interrupted
using the STOP button, the specimen slide
holder, which is still in the instrument, must
be removed from the loading bath manually
after processing is finished. In this case, it
is not transported automatically back to the
transfer station.
• In case of power failure or if the instruments are switched off, specimen slide holders can
remain in different positions. Therefore, if this error occurs, the following items must be
checked:
- Transfer station with all transfer facilities
- Loading bath of the coverslipper
• These specimen slide holders must be removed manually to prevent collisions after resuming
workstation operation.
• The specimen slide holders that are left behind must be placed in the coverslipper manually
for further processing and removed after processing.
So that you do not disturb workstation operation, you should process specimen slide
holders that come from the slide stainer first. Only then should you process the specimen
slide holders to be loaded manually in the coverslipper.
If the instrument is operated as a workstation, the user must ensure that before reinitial-
ization, no rack is in the transfer station.
