**Illumina Protein Prep Automation System (IPPAS)**\
An UPS is not provided with the IPPAS. The following specifications apply to the UPS that is recommended for use with the instrument

![](https://761066130-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FGM9W2DuBTgEXv1ClCm8H%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-49fae84e5ef6b4103fa536c6c599c6dcf7531873%2Fimage1.png?alt=media)

**Important notes:**

Illumina recommends that instruments are connected to the UPS, and that the UPS is connected to emergency power in the lab/institution.

* UPSs are not meant to support runs for long periods of time - they are intended to bridge the gap between initial outage before emergency power is connected (so only for a manner of minutes at most).
* Use one UPS per instrument (do not plug in multiple instruments into one UPS) - multiple instruments/computers on a single UPS can cause spontaneous power failures.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://knowledge.illumina.com/instrumentation/general/instrumentation-general-reference_material-list/000005838.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
