Calibration
Before using the MACSQuant Instrument for the first time, calibrate the hardware. In order to calibrate the
MACSQuant Instrument, the user must be familiar with the MACSQuantify Software. It is highly recommended
that hardware calibration is only performed by an administrator who has been trained by Miltenyi Biotec. Refer
to the MACSQuantify Software user manual or the help function of the MACSQuant Instrument for an
introduction to the MACSQuant Instrument user interface and a detailed description of the instrument settings.

Calibrating the robotic needle arm
During calibration, the robotic needle arm moves between the samples and the dropping station. Ensure that
the robotic needle arm can move freely and that no object is obstructing it.
1 Go to the Tools tab in the side panel of the MACSQuantify Software and select the Calibrate uptake unit
box. A red closed circle indicates that the respective uptake component is not calibrated.
2 Click Start calibration under the heading Needle arm calibration relative to dropping station. The
robotic needle arm will move towards the dropping station before being inserted into the port.
