Removing Plates

When all of the imaging for a certain plate has been completed, you can then remove the plate from ROCK IMAGER. Multiple plates can be moved at the same time to the load port, from which they may be removed from the system for external storage. In this tutorial, you will learn how to safely remove a plate.

 

Important: You should never attempt to physically reach inside the ROCK IMAGER 1000 or 182 to remove a plate from anywhere other than the load port.

 

To Remove a Plate from ROCK IMAGER:

  1. Select the plate of interest, right-click the plate, point to Move Plate To, and click Load Port Hotel. To select multiple plates at once, press and hold the Ctrl key on your keyboard while selecting the desired plates, before right-clicking.

  2. Open the load port door. If you are using ROCK IMAGER 1000, the load port shuttle will move towards you. Remove the desired plate(s) from the load port and close the door. If you are using ROCK IMAGER 1000, the load port shuttle automatically retracts.
