aspirate pip

Aspiration of liquid using PIP.

It’s not really clear what second section aspiration is, but it does not seem to be used very often. Probably safe to ignore it.

LLD restrictions!

  • “dP and Dual LLD” are used in aspiration only. During dispensation LLD is set to OFF.

  • “side touch off” turns LLD & “Z touch off” to OFF , is not available for simultaneous Asp/Disp. command
