Overfilling sample containers may cause splashing while the container moves in the entry and exit queues. The racks come in different colors. The lab can use the colors to organize tubes as desired. There is a configuration setting that can be used to configure specific rack colors for certain container types. Refer to Online Help for more information. Load Samples To load samples, first place sample tubes in the appropriate sample rack. The system supports both barcoded and non-barcoded tubes. Sample containers with caps are not supported. Refer to Online Help for more information on the adaptors and a complete list of the supported sample containers. Load Samples The default tube size is 16x100 millimeters. Adaptors are used to support shorter and smaller diameter tubes. If the tube requires an adaptor, ensure the correct size adaptor is used and verify that the adaptor is fully seated in the rack. Load Samples Tube top cups are automatically detected when placed on top of supported tubes. For more information on using tube-top sample cups and capillary tubes, refer to the Managing Small Samples Workflow on the Atellica Solution training. Load Samples Capillary tubes must be placed in the appropriate capillary tube holder. Load Samples Load the sample rack in the entry queue.
