1.1.4 Set Up
CAUTION: Remove all of the foam packaging from inside the instrument
before initial power up. Failure to do so may result in damage to the
electronics.
1. Place the Modulus™ Microplate Reader on a flat, level surface. Leave at least 7.5 inches
(19 cm) of clearance in front of the instrument to allow the instrument door to open
without hindrance. Position the instrument so that the touch screen faces outward.
2. Manually open the instrument door and remove the foam packing from inside of
the instrument. The packing material is used to secure the optical heads and Microplate
Sample Tray during shipping.
