20. Check to see if the stream is hitting the waste hole in the back of the sort collection area.
21. If not, coarse adjustments can be made by physically moving the black block area at the
top of the nozzle.
Note: The upper right gimbal moves the nozzle right to left. The bottom right gimbal moves the
nozzle foward and back.
22. Fine movements can be made using the gimbals and a hex wrench provided in the
accessory kit.
The S3 Cell Sorter uses the micromotors to align the stream to the pinhole and to the lasers.
Three camera views — pinhole, droplet, and stream — will appear during the alignment. The
micromotors will bring the stream into focus.
