3 Carefully close the lid.
CAUTION
Do not force the lid closed. This may damage the pressure cartridge. The lid may not
close completely. If the software recognizes that a chip has been inserted, the system
is ready. If the chip is not recognized open the lid, verify that the cartridge and chip are
inserted properly and the chip selector is in the correct position. Close the lid.
The adapter with the gasket in the cartridge fits onto the priming well of the chip. A
small gap between the lid and the instrument mainframe is normal and no cause for
malfunction. The icon on the Instrument tab changes to a cell chip icon:
If the chip is not detected, open and close the lid again.
NOTE
If the AutoRun option is active (see “Options – Advanced” on page 508), the chip run
starts automatically once a chip has been inserted and the lid has been closed.
