A.5: Suggestions for Deck Positioning on Beckman Biomek FX InstrumentsOccasionally, the Biomek FX Deck will need modification. A great feature of the Biomek FX is that it can automatically calibrateitself with the “AutoTeach” function. It is recommended that you routinely perform the auto-calibration step. Over time, it will beginto lose alignment.Sometimes, the “Framing Tool Offset” will go out of alignment. This is a problem because when you AutoTeach the deck, it actuallytakes account for the “Framing Tool Offset” and the deck position in the software isn’t completely based upon the actual deckposition. Therefore, if you are trying to use a 384 plate washer, a 1536 plate, or another high precision ALP, you might need toslightly modify the deck manually. This option is simple to perform and there is no need to schedule a service call. If all of thepositions on the deck are misaligned then it might be better to have a Service Engineer come and re-calibrate the Framing ToolOffset.See Fig. 1 for instructions on how to manually “move” the deck within the software.1. Open the Saigen Biomek FX Softwareand under the ‘Tools’ menu, click on“Deck Editor.”Fig. 12. Your current deck should appear. Youshould be able to see all ALPs associatedwith the current deck.
