1.1 General Information

Read this procedure in its entirety before starting the alignment.
For general safety information, refer to the Safety section of the Atellica Solution CB-DOC.

 WARNING
Carriers on the Atellica Magline Transport generate strong magnetic fields that
F can interfere with cardiac medical implants.
Use extreme caution while interacting with sample carriers installed on Atellica
M Magline Transport.
 Do not position pacemakers or other implanted medical devices closer than
7.5 cm (3 inches) from the Atellica Magline Transport.

 If the vacuum pump control loop is not checked from the Instrument tab, run an Au‐
toCheck sub-system for the vacuum pump.

1. Verify that the peristaltic pump tubing is installed and the peristaltic pump latch is
closed on the tubing.
2. Verify that the IMT multisensor is installed and that the door is closed.
3. Click the Subsystem tab, then click IMT on the left side of the screen.
4. Click Auto Align Subsystem.

If the IMT rotary valve fails to auto align, fill the sample port with 0.5 mL DI water and
 click the Cycle Targets several times until the sample port empties. Then redo Auto Align
IMT RV.

 Align IMT Sample Port to Dilution Arm 3 9

The IMT Alignment tool helps to ensure that the manifold sample port position is in cor‐
rect radial alignment to the dilution arm. Once this alignment is set, the Dilution Arm au‐
to-alignment will position the probe in the sample port in the optimal off-center position
for performance.

1. Enter Diagnostic Mode:

 If the primary display is locked, log on with the CSE logon.
a) Click the System tab.
b) Click the Status tab.
c) Click the CH analyzer icon.
d) From the options on the left, click the Diagnostics button (if the analyzer is not in
the 'Stopped' state).

 The Stopped state will also allow the user to enter Diagnostics.

2. Connect to the analyzer diagnostics via Remote Module Access ( Remote Module Ac‐
cess (RMA) / LDAT-000.840.03).
3. Unlock the front lid:
a) In Diagnostics, click the Instrument tab.
b) Click Unlock Front Lid.
4. Open the front lid.

5. Verify that the Probe Radial Alignment ( Probe Radial Alignment / LDAT-010.842.06)
and the Align Upper Arm to Home ( Align Upper Arm to Home / LDAT-010.842.06)
have been completed successfully.
6. Auto-align the dilution arm if adjustments were made in step 5. Otherwise, continue
to the next step.
a) Click the Auto Align tab.

8. Move the dilution arm to the IMT sample port:

a) In Diagnostics, click the Subsystem tab.
b) On the left side of the screen, select DilutionArm.
c) Under the angular motor alignment points, click IMTSamplePort.
9. Step the arm down until just above the oval slot in the IMT alignment tool by using
the large down arrow under the vertical motor section. The default step value should
be 192.
