1. Introduction
The chemiSOLO offers high performance chemiluminescent and visible imaging in a compact design with
unique external control methods. Each chemiSOLO instrument includes the following key components:
• Body – The body is a light-tight imaging station, containing the camera and lens, mirrors, electrical
components, Ethernet, Wi-Fi emitter, and USB ports for data collection and external computer control.
• Stage – The imaging stage is a user-accessible, transparent platform for sample placement just
beneath the inner lid, which contains the LED light sources.
• Camera – High resolution 6.29MPx camera, preinstalled in the system.
• LEDs – The LED module allows for visible imaging, utilized for chemi marker images and visible
stained gel images in both color or grayscale.
• USB Ports – There are two USB ports for data transfer or for the external Wi-Fi dongle [CS1006], both
located at the back of the instrument.
• Ethernet Port – There is one ethernet port on the back of the instrument, which enables direct
computer connection with the use of an ethernet cord [CS1007].
• USB Memory Stick – The Azure Biosystems memory stick contains calibration les relevant to your
chemiSOLO system.

chemiSOLO User Manual Page 6
2.1—System Placement
As with all electrical instruments, the chemiSOLO should be located away from water, solvents, or corrosive
materials on a at and stable surface with adequate clearance on all sides. The system must remain
stationary during operation.
The system should be placed away from interfering electrical signals and magnetic elds. If possible, a
dedicated electrical outlet should be used to eliminate electrical interference from other instrumentation in
your laboratory.
The chemiSOLO should be installed at no more than 3,000 meters above sea level. The unit should be placed
out of direct, bright sunlight or illumination sources to guard against light leaks.
2.2—Connecting to Power
The power entry module is located in the lower right on the back panel of the system. Connect the power cord
to a secure power outlet.
It is important to connect the system to a well-grounded power source. Azure Biosystems recommends that
you employ a surge-protecting power strip to protect against unexpected power surges that may cause
damage to the electrical components.
2. Installation and Setup
2.3—Turning the System On/Off
The main power switch is located on the back panel, just above the power entry module.
1. First, ip the power switch to On (I).
2. The light on the front of the chemiSOLO will turn blue and white while loading, then green once the
instrument is ready for use.
To turn off the system, shut down the chemiSOLO by:
1. Disconnecting from the chemiSOLO software on the controlling device.
2. Then, shut off power to the system by ipping the power switch on the back of the instrument to
Off (O).
