Up and down arrow keys, which can be pressed to increment parameter values up or
down.
The ENTER/SAVE key can be pressed to save parameter inputs to system memory
during manual run setup or to a program during a program set up, and to start the
centrifuge (ENTER/SAVE, then START must be pressed to start the centrifuge).
The keypad is used to enter numerical run parameters, to enter or recall a program
number, and to select acceleration and/or deceleration rates. In addition to keys
0 through 9, the keypad includes a plus/minus key and a CE (clear entry) key.
The ± key is used to enter a temperature setting below 0°C (for example, –2°C) in the
Allegra X-12R.
The CE (clear entry) key clears any parameter on the display. Pressing CE will also clear
some diagnostic messages. If a diagnostic message does not clear when CE is pressed,
see CHAPTER 4, Troubleshooting.
Pressed during a run to display set values for 5 seconds.
Causes the rotor to accelerate, at maximum rate, to set speed for short-duration runs
(as long as the key is pressed). Deceleration, at maximum rate, begins when the key is
released.
Pressing ENTER/SAVE, then START begins the run. (START must be pressed within
5 seconds of pressing ENTER/SAVE.) This key combination can also be used to abort a
deceleration process and restart the centrifuge.
Can be pressed at any time while the rotor is spinning to terminate a run. The centrifuge
decelerates to a complete stop according to the deceleration setting. The green light
next to the key flashes while the rotor decelerates. A tone sounds when the rotor comes
to a complete stop. (Instructions for disabling the tone are in
Unlocks and opens the door. (The instrument will not accept the unlock command if the
rotor is spinning.)
