1. A robotic system operable for transfer of fluid between a container accessible via a container-septum and a fluid transfer assembly, the fluid transfer assembly being accessible via a fluid transfer connector having a body member and a sleeve including a fluid transfer connector septum, the sleeve and the body member being configured to move relative to each other along a longitudinal axis upon activation of a locking mechanism, which prior to being activated prevents the relative movement therebetween along said longitudinal axis, the robotic system comprising:
a controller; and
a manipulator controllable by the controller and configured to manipulate the fluid transfer assembly, the manipulator being configured to both grip the fluid transfer assembly and activate the locking mechanism,
the controller being configured to operate the manipulator to activate the locking mechanism and then subsequently to move the sleeve and the body member relative to each other along the longitudinal axis and to transfer fluid between the fluid transfer assembly and the container.
