Counting Samples
Conducting An Automatic Count
You can load up to 28 standard vial racks or 36 miniature racks or Bio-Vial racks. With
Versa-Rack installed, standard, miniature and Bio-Vial racks may be intermixed within the
same run. Care must be taken not to place more racks in the sample changer than it is capable
of using. An error message is displayed if the sample changer is overloaded.
If you want to calibrate the instrument before counting your samples, first place the Calibrate
Rack into the sample changer. Be sure this rack has the Auto Calibrate Card installed and the
14
C unquenched standard is in position #1. Refer to Section 2.7 for more information on
calibration.
NOTE Programs using blanks, replicates, % of Reference, or Xtal DPM require specific sample loading
sequences within the racks. Refer to the appropriate sections in Section 5 for more information on the
required loading sequences of the samples within the racks.
Load your samples that have been placed in the appropriate Sample Racks. The first Sample
Rack must be the rack with the User Number Card installed that corresponds to the User
Program you wish to use. During Automatic Count, only the first rack of samples requires a
User Number Card. All following racks are counted under the same program, until a new
User Number Card or Halt Card is encountered.
Sample Racks may be loaded even if they are less than full. The instrument skips past the
empty positions and proceeds to the next rack. Rack Number Cards are not required on the
racks. If they are installed, however, Sample Racks can be used in any rack number order. The
system reads and prints the number from the card before processing the rack.
Place all the racks together that are to be counted under the same User Program. If one or
more additional sample sets are to be counted under different User Numbers during the same
Automatic Count, make certain that the first rack in each set bears the correct User Number
Card. When a Sample Rack with a User Number Card reaches the position for processing, the
instrument “reads” the new user number and changes the processing parameters to those
specified in that User Program.
When all the Sample Racks to be counted are loaded, place the red Halt Rack behind the last
rack of samples to terminate Automatic Count.
NOTE Samples placed in the Halt Rack are not counted. Do not place samples to be counted in the Halt
Rack.
Additional sample sets may be loaded after Automatic Count has been initiated. Load the new
sample sets in front of the Halt Rack, being careful that the new sample sets are not loaded in
the middle of a set of samples waiting to be counted.
Starting the Automatic Count
NOTE Check that the printer is ON (it should be left on). Also check that the ON LINE light is lit, and that
paper is loaded and is at the top of the form. Refer to Section 2.5 for more information on setting up the
printer.
Automatic Count is initiated from the Main Menu. Highlight Automatic Counting and press
SELECT to begin the counting process. The Main Editing Window displays instructions to
load your samples. Load the samples as described in Section and press START. The racks are
advanced to the rear of the instrument and counting commences. A typical screen displayed
during Automatic Count is shown in Figure 3.2.
