iii. How to install Andrew Alliance pipettes on the
Robot stand
To equip the Robot
with Andrew Alliance pipettes
it is sufficient to place them in
any available slot of the tool
stand. It is not necessary to turn
on the pipettes before placing
them. The display of the pipette
should be oriented toward the
user as indicated in the picture
on the right.
Please be sure that the metallic
pins present on the side of the
pipette are in contact with the
metallic pins present in the slot
of the tool stand.
iv. Labware gripper
The Labware gripper is a
compact Bluetooth controlled
device which allows the
Robot to manipulate
labware.
It is composed of two main
parts: the clamp, whose
geometry and shape can differ
according to the consumable
shape, and the body,
responsible for communication
with the Robot and
the control of the actuator.
The Labware gripper does
not require an adaptor and
can be placed in any slot
of the tool stand. It has two
metallic pins on the side
which allow the charging of
the embedded battery and
serial communication with the
Robot.
