There are two special positions stored in the "Positions" tab: TransferPrep and TransferAn, these are standard positions in Preparation and Analysis chambers, respectively. Automatic movement of manipulator between these two positions is considered safe.
To move from Preparation to Analysis chamber first move to TransferPrep, then after all axis have moved, move to TransferAn position. And vice-versa for opposite direction.
Before moving from Preparation to Analysis chamber first make sure that there are no obstacles in the Preparation chamber (heater, quartz microbalance etc are retracted) and open the valve between the chambers.
Even though it is safe, manipulator should not be left unattended while it's moving!
If you put your own equipment, avoid loosely hanging cables.
Movement is safe unless the calibration of manipulator is correct. If you had to use the big red emergency stop button or for any other reason you suspect that coordinates may be wrong, contact the beamline scientist.
Polar corrections
Troubleshooting
Sudden change in all coordinates, manipulator starts to move by itself
If this happens, first thing to do is to press the emergency stop red button. It will cut the power from motors.
Then call the beamline scientist to help. Solution of this problem is currently not available for users.
