1. Abstract
Halo Counter Product Descritption
This product is a cell counter that can be applied in the field of life sciences for the quantitative counting of cells in biological samples. It is used to monitor the health and viability of cultured cells, growth status curves, and more. The product features an advanced consumable-free design concept, combined with precise motion control and AI algorithms, to achieve fast and accurate counting results. It also embodies an environmentally friendly approach, meeting the needs of users across various industries in the market.
This manual will primarily introduce the product’s features, usage methods, and precautions to help consumers better understand and use the product.
2. Product Features
2.1 Product Models This product is available in two models: a bright-field cell counter and a fluorescence cell counter.
2.2 Product Applications The bright-field cell counter can calculate indicators such as cell sample concentration, quantity, and diameter. When used with Trypan Blue, it can also determine cell viability in bright-field mode and calculate viability rates. The fluorescence cell counter adds functionalities of AO, PI, GFP, RFP, and more to the basic functions of the bright-field counter. It can calculate indicators such as cell viability and transfection efficiency.

3. Product Usage Instructions
3.1 Open the packaging box and take out the device and power adapter. 3.2
Slightly lift the bottom of the device or place it sideways on the table, and
use the provided wrench to remove the transport lock. 3.3 After removing the
transport lock, place the device horizontally, connect the power cord, turn on
the switch, and wait for the device to start and reset. 3.4 WiFi Connection
Methods: 3.4.1 Command Line Connection: Connect to WiFi using the command:
nmcli dev wifi connect WiFi_name password WiFi_password. 3.4.2 Interface
Connection: Click the WiFi icon in the bottom right corner of the desktop,
select the WiFi network, and enter the password. 3.5 Flip open the sample
stage cover, clean the sample stage, and then close the cover. 3.6 Add the
appropriate volume of cell samples into the channel of the sample stage. 3.7
Click to enter the corresponding app, select the operation, and count (for
detailed operation steps, refer to the Halo Counter Operation Manual 2.0
(SOP)).
3.8 Wait for the results and review them.
4. Precautions
4.1 Check if the transport lock has been removed before powering the device.
4.2 The power supply voltage must not exceed 12V, and the power must not
exceed 36W, otherwise, there is a high risk of damaging the device. 4.3 The
sample stage includes areas made of transparent glass, which are fragile.
Avoid scratching the glass with sharp objects and handle it gently. 4.4 Avoid
hard objects impacting the touchscreen to prevent damage and ensure normal
operation. 4.5 The movable arm is the top light source, not a handle. Do not
lift the device by the arm to avoid affecting the test results.
5. Product Maintenance
5.1 After each cell sample test, it is recommended to use 75% medical alcohol
to clean the sample stage to prevent cells from drying in the channel and
affecting the next cleaning. 5.2 Regularly check the device’s memory storage
capacity based on usage frequency to prevent capacity overload and reduced
operating speed. 5.3 If the device will not be used for a long period (e.g.,
during holidays), turn it off to ensure safety and save energy.
