STEP 2: PREPARING THE FLUIDICS STATION<br />

The Fluidics Station 450 is used to wash and stain the probe arrays; it<br />

is operated using GeneChip Operating Software.<br />

Setting Up the Fluidics Station<br />

1. Turn on the Fluidics Station using the toggle switch on the lower<br />

left side of the machine.<br />

2. Select Run → Fluidics from the menu bar in GCOS.<br />

The Fluidics Station dialog box appears with a drop-down list for<br />

selecting the experiment name for each of the fluidics station<br />

modules. A second drop-down list is accessed for choosing the<br />

Protocol for each of the fluidics station modules. Use the radio<br />

buttons to access each module.<br />

Refer to the GeneChip ® Fluidics Station User’s Guide for<br />

instructions on connecting and addressing multiple fluidics<br />
