Position the lift

Raising or lowering the lift to a defined position. Work, rinse, shift and

special position are rack-specifically defined in the Configuration menu

under

'>rack definitions'

(see section 4.2.1).

The rest position is the zero position (0 mm) of the lift, i.e. the upper

stop.
Each lift can also be precisely positioned to the millimeter. The LEARN

function is also available for this purpose (see section 4.3.4).

With LIFT commands, please note that if you are using the 6.1835.000

PEEK needle, the sample tubes may

not be sealed with caps be-

cause they cannot be pierced by the PEEK needle !

Pump control

With the command the peristaltic pump of the 766 IC Sam-

ple Processor can be controlled.
The pump can be turned off and on as desired or operated for a spe-

cific amount of time. The LEARN function is useful for determining the

interval of time (see section 4.3.4).

any 8-bit pattern

In a sequence the

SCN:Rm

command causes method processing to stop

until the predefined bit pattern is received.
