Autotrace 280

How many of you use this instrument?
I use one for 525 extractions. Seems to work fine, with the exception that the shuttle moves from the collection vials to waste when I rinse the sample bottles with solvent. It moves back to the collection vials for the completion of the elution.
I don't remember my earlier version of this instrument having this issue.

Anyone else?

Thanks
Bear

Yes, the AT280 has that weird function where it moves the rack back between solvents. Our older instrument was not doing that which we preferred. I wonder if there’s something in the instrument config / setup that could be changed.
