The figure above shows the front of the NucleoCounter
®
NC-3000 ™. Three
operational areas are present:

Lid with sample tray behind

Run and Eject Keys

Tri color status indicator
The lid is located in the first area where the sample, contained in a Cassette or slide
is placed. When the sample tray is ejected either a Cassette or a Slide can be
placed here. The Sample tray will automatically open the lid. A spring will ensure
that the lid closes again when the sample tray is in serted.
Caution! No parts or materials must be placed in front of the lid as the sample tray
can cause these to tip during ejection.
The second area is where the operational keys are placed. Once a protocol has
been selected in the software (se detailed d escription in the NucleoView NC- 3000™
User’s Guide), an analysis using this protocol can be performed just be activating
the Run key.
The third area has a status indicator.
