Calibrating the Volume Sensor
Follow the instructions in the CALIBRATION WIZARD to calibrate the volume sensor if you experience a consistent issue with the volume sensing accuracy that isn’t fixed restarting the PULSE. Significant temperature changes, such as switching to cold room use, are likely to affect how the device senses volume. When changing the room temperature that the PULSE is working in, you should allow the system at least two hours to acclimate to the new temperature. It is also recommended to avoid areas where the device will see direct sunlight that changes throughout the day.
Important: These instructions are intended for advanced users only! Doing something incorrectly here may render your system inoperable. Consult with FORMULATRIX support if you have any questions.
Required Tools:
- 100 mL of distilled water or buffer solution
- 1 mL pippetter
- 5 mL pippetter
To calibrate the volume sensor:
On the Home Screen, tap the CALIBRATION WIZARD menu.
Follow the on-screen instructions.
Note: Correct calibration results are indicated by green check marks on the calibration charts under each step in the CALIBRATION Wizard window. If you find a red exclamation mark on a chart, you must re-calibrate the volume sensor.
OPTIONAL: Follow the instructions below to recalibrate the volume sensor:
Tap on the chart that has a red exclamation mark.
