The RC6 Plus control keyboard is used to select desired run parameters. During a run, digital displays
indicate set and actual run conditions, such as estimated sample temperature, rotor speed, remaining
run time or accumulated integral value.
Operation Panel
The operation panel of the RC6 Plus Superspeed centrifuge is composed of a display panel and
function keys. The liquid crystal display can be tilted back and forth for easy viewing. The display
panel shows various screen displays such as programmed operation, rotor list and user customization in
addition to the basic screen (RUN SCREEN) (see Figure 3-1).
The display automatically turns to the ZOOM SCREEN (see Figure 3-2) when 20 seconds have passed
after reaching the set speed. The ZOOM screen returns to the RUN SCREEN by pressing any key on
the panel or when the rotor starts deceleration.
