D-ONE – Operating instructions V01 Introduction
www.integra-biosciences.com 7
1 Introduction
These operating instructions contain all the information required for installation, operation
and maintenance of the D-ONE modules. This chapter informs about the symbols used in
these operating instructions, the intended use of D-ONE and the general safety
instructions.
1.1 Symbols used
The operating instructions specifically advise of residual risks with the following symbols:
WARNING
This safety symbol warns against hazards that could result in injury. It also
indicates hazards for machinery, materials and the environment.
It is essential that you follow the corresponding precautions.
CAUTION
This symbol cautions against potential material damage or the loss of data in
a microprocessor controller. Follow the instructions.
NOTE
This symbol identifies important notes regarding the correct operation of the
device and labor-saving features.
1.2 Intended use
This is a general-purpose laboratory instrument for use in research only. Any use of this
instrument in a medical or IVD setting is under the sole responsibility of the user.
This product may only be operated in a secure, protected network with validated,
trustworthy clients. The operator must ensure that network security measures are always
up-to-date and state-of-the-art. This product may not be directly exposed to the internet.
If the D-ONE modules are used in a manner not specified by INTEGRA Biosciences, the
protection provided by the D-ONE may be impaired.
D-ONE are microprocessor controlled and stepper motor driven pipetting modules with
two channels, one of which can be used at a time. They are used on the ASSIST PLUS
pipetting robot for aspirating and dispensing aqueous liquids in the volume range of 0.5 –
1250 μl using GripTip™ pipette tips only. Each D-ONE module is compatible with two
different GripTip sizes and provides pressure-based liquid level detection.

D-ONE – Operating instructions V01 Introduction
8 INTEGRA Biosciences AG
1.3 Safety notes
D-ONE comply to the recognized safety regulations and are safe to operate. D-ONE
should only be operated when in perfect condition and while observing these operating
instructions.
The device may be associated with residual risks if it is used or operated improperly by
untrained personnel. Any person operating D-ONE must have read and understood these
operating instructions, and particularly, the safety notes, or must have been instructed by
supervisors so that safe operation of the device is guaranteed.
WARNING
• Use only an original INTEGRA Li-ion battery (#4205) and charging
device.
• Old Li-ion batteries may cause a safety risk. We recommend to replace
the battery after 3 years of use. Also replace the battery if the charging
intervals are unusually short or if the charging takes much longer than
usual (4 hours or more). – These are indicators that the battery has
reached the end of its life-cycle.
If a lithium battery is never deep discharged and is always stored and
operated in the recommended temperature range and stored at 40-80%
charge level during long standby periods, it may live much longer than 3
years. If it shows no signs of physical damage or change, see 5.1.3, it is
a strong indication that you may continue to use the battery.
• Li-ion technology bears the risk of thermal runaway and cell rupture if the
battery was damaged. Do not expose the battery to heat (> 60°C) and
avoid mechanical stress. Batteries which were subject to deep dis-
charges may develop internal short circuits, leading to an increased self-
discharge rate and heating during battery charging. This may also result
in thermal runaway and cell rupture.
CAUTION
• To extend the battery life-cycle, it is recommended to charge the battery
every 2 months if D-ONE is not used regularly. If D-ONE is not used for
more than 6 months, unplug the battery.
WARNING
•Do not use D-ONE near flammable material or in explosive areas. Also,
do not pipette highly flammable liquids such as acetone or ether.
• When handling dangerous substances, comply with the material safety
data sheet (MSDS) and with all safety guidelines such as the use of pro-
tective clothing and safety goggles.

D-ONE – Operating instructions V01 Introduction
www.integra-biosciences.com 9
CAUTION
•Do not immerse D-ONE in liquid. The fluid can damage internal parts.
Avoid pipetting of liquids whose vapors could attack the materials PA
(polyamide), POM (polyoxymethylene), FPM (fluor-rubber), NBR (nitrile-
rubber), CR (chloroprene), silicone. Corrosive vapors could also damage
metallic parts inside the device.
• Do not modify D-ONE in any way. Repairs may only be performed by
INTEGRA Biosciences or by an authorized after-sales service member.
• Parts may be replaced with original INTEGRA Biosciences parts only.
NOTE
Prolonged exposure of D-ONE to UV-light can cause discoloration and/or
yellowing of D-ONE housing. However, this will not affect the performance of
the device in any way.
Regardless of the listed safety notes, additional applicable regulations and guidelines of
trade associations, health authorities, trade supervisory offices, etc. must be observed.
Please visit our website www.integra-biosciences.com on a regular basis for up to date
information regarding REACH classified chemicals contained in our products.

3 Installation
3.1 Operating environment
The D-ONE have been designed for use in a laboratory. They shall be operated in a dry
and dust-free location with a temperature of 5– 40 °C and a maximal (non-condensing)
relative humidity of 80 %.
3.2 Charging the battery
D-ONE contains a rechargeable Li-ion battery. Charge the battery completely before first
use. A full charge takes 2.5 hours (max. 4 hours) and will provide approximately 1500
cycles.
A battery indicator is provided on D-ONE display (2.2.3) indicating different states:
• Blinking red icon: Battery is low and needs to be recharged. If not connected to the
mains adapter, the D-ONE module will turn off soon.
• Green icon: D-ONE module is connected to the mains adapter.
• Blinking bars: D-ONE module is recharging.
• Two static and one blinking bar on the right: D-ONE module is recharging and battery
is 80% charged.
• Three static bars: Battery is fully charged.
Use the charging/communication stand (#4211), the USB cable (#4226) or the charging
cable (#4549) to charge the battery, see “7.1 Accessories” on page 33).
CAUTION
Use only the approved INTEGRA battery, charging cable or stand with the
correct mains adapter. Use of an incompatible power transformer can
damage the D-ONE module.
The D-ONE module will turn on when placed on the stand and turn off when the Turn Off
Time is reached. The display may dim or show the start up screen, but it will continue to
show the battery life indicator. When the Standby Time is reached, the display is turned
off. When the Turn Off Time is reached, the instrument will shut off.
For disconnecting simply lift the D-ONE module up from the stand.
Place the D-ONE module on the charging/communication stand by
fitting the power receptacle (15, on the top back of the module) over
the four pin prong connector on the top of the stand.
Plug the power cable of the adequate power supply to the socket.

D-ONE – Operating instructions V01 Installation

3.3 Exchanging the battery
After exchanging the battery, a protective switch is active. The D-ONE module can only
be started after connecting it to the mains power supply.
WARNING
D-ONE module use Li-ion batteries, see “1.3 Safety notes” on page 8.
3.4 Tip deck for D-ONE
The D-ONE module requires its own tip deck (#4535) on ASSIST PLUS. Insert the tip deck
and place two GripTip racks on the deck.
D-ONE 0.5 –300 μl: pink 12.5 µl and green 300 µl tip rack.
D-ONE 5 – 1250 μl: yellow 125 µl and blue 1250 µl tip rack.
To exchange the battery, loosen the screw to detach the D-ONE
module backing. Disconnect the power plug of battery (16).
Connect the power plug of the new battery to the D-ONE module's
socket and reassemble the D-ONE module backing.
Left side: pink 12.5 µl or yellow 125 µl rack.
The 192 tips on the right half of the rack can be
loaded. Then rotate the rack 180° to use the tips on
the left half.
Right side: green 300 µl or blue 1250 µl rack.
The lid on the right side must be removed manually
prior to tips loading.
Attach the second stage to lift the 12.5 or 125 µl tip
rack so that both racks are the same height when
using 300 µl LONG or 1250 µl GripTips.
The second stage can be removed by tilting it to the
right (see arrow).
