Kinetics Function
The Kinetics function is used to perform a set of steps on a per-well basis, then repeating the set of steps a
desired number of times (i.e., inject and read one well multiple times before proceeding to the next well).
Note: Kinetics can be used with all detection modes, plate types, and protocol functions except for heat, shake and
user prompt functions. If shaking and/or heating is desired in a kinetic protocol, they must be applied to the entire
plate and therefore be placed outside of the kinetic step. Loops may not be placed within a kinetic step, but kinetic
steps may be placed within Loops. A maximum of 250 kinetic reads in 1-unit increments can be performed within
a single kinetic step. For example, 10 readings with a 1-second interval means that 1 reading is taken every
1 second for 10 seconds.

Add the Kinetics step to the protocol by dragging and dropping the Kinetics icon onto the protocol.

All well-associated operations within the kinetic block must have the same well selection. The plate maps of
these operations are not individually editable.
