Installation

3.1 Environmental Requirements

To ensure correct operation and stable performance over an extended period of time,

install the SmartSpec Plus in a location which meets the following conditions:

• Room temperature between 15 and 35°C. Not recommended for cold room use (4°C).

• Not exposed to direct sun light.

• Not subject to direct or continuous vibration.

• Not subject to intense magnetic or electromagnetic fields.

• Relative humidity between 0–95%.

• Area free from corrosive gases or other corrosive substances.

• Area with very little dust or other airborne particles.

• Allow a 10 cm minimum space around the instrument for proper air flow.

3.2 Power On and Initial Display

1. Power up SmartSpec. When you turn on SmartSpec Plus, it will go through a

self-diagnostic routine during which it tests the lamp, optical components, diode array,

powersupply and other components. If a problem is detected, an error message will be

displayed and you should call Bio-Rad Technical Support. If boot up is successful and no

errors are detected, the Home screens will be displayed.
