Load all the CTCs that came with the device into the flow cell positions.
All the strips should be loaded with CTCs.
Note:
- A PromethION 24 has three strips that contain a total of 24 flow cell positions.
- A PromethION 48 has six strips that contain a total of 48 flow cell positions.The MinKNOW UI recognises the CTCs as they are loaded, and the LED adjacent to the flow cell will first show blue (initialising), followed by green (ready).
Close all of the doors on the top of the Sequencing Unit once the CTCs are loaded.

Select all the CTCs in the UI and click Start for the check to begin.
