The heater lamp is on continuously while the Oven is heating up. As the required
temperature is approached, it starts to flash. When the unit is controlling at the set
temperature, the heater lamp flashes intermittently.
4.2 Setting the Temperature
The Temperature Controller has three buttons. When the button on the left ‘*’ is
depressed, it will display the set temperature. When the left button ‘*’ is depressed
simultaneously with the middle button ‘
▼’, the set temperature value is lowered. When
the left button ‘*’ is depressed simultaneously with the right button ‘
▲’, the set
temperature value is raised. When all buttons are released, the actual chamber
temperature is displayed.
In the event of power loss, the Temperature Controller retains the last set temperature
value.
4.3 Loading Tray with Slides
The tray with the standard wire rack can be loaded with up to 20 standard glass slides
(see Figure 2). Using the optional slide holder, up to 18 standard glass slides can be
loaded (see Figure 3). Use your standard protocol to prepare the slides with probe and
buffer. Place filter paper at the bottom of the tray (Whatman
*
filter paper, Catalog
Number 1823 025, is recommended). To provide humidity during the heating cycle, add
approximately 2 ml of currently used hybridization solution on the filter paper in the
bottom of the tray (see Figure 4). Do not use water or distilled water. If cover slips are
used, it is not necessary to seal them; the hybridization solution and the sealed tray
maintain a humid environment.
