CONTROL PANEL

2-6
The power switch is a two-position rocker switch (I, on; O, off) which
controls electrical power to the centrifuge.
The key switch has five positions, indicating the five different
operating modes.
• NORMAL mode is used for regular, closed-door centrifugation.
• ZONAL mode is used when the JCF-Z continuous flow/zonal
rotor is installed. In ZONAL mode, the centrifuge can run up to
3000 rpm with the door open so that sample can be loaded and
unloaded while the rotor is spinning.
• PROG(RAM) LOCK mode disables the function that saves
parameters to stored programs, to prevent overwriting of previ-
ously stored programs.
• RUN LOCK mode disables all user inputs except [
[ ] to ensure that current settings do not get changed.
STOP
• INST(RUMENT) LOCK mode disables all user inputs except
[ ], to prevent use of the instrument after the current run is

complete.
The control panel (Figure 2-2) is mounted at an angle on the centri-
fuge top rear for easy visibility and access. It contains a separate
actual value display and a setup screen, numerical keypad, and touch
keys for parameter entry and system control.
