Chapter 4: Scanning Slides

Basic Concepts

When you first start the Console, you see the rack view, which gives information on the status of the contents of the

AutoLoader racks.

You will select slides and racks on this window.

The most important concept to understand when using the rack view is the difference between including slides in the

current scan batch and selecting slides.

Any slides in the slide positions shown in the slide tray display that have a white color are not included in the current scan

batch nor are they selected, whether or not there is a slide in that position.

Any slides in the slide positions shown in the rack view that have a status color other than white are included in the current

scan batch.

If the slide position has a status color and shows a lighter bar on the left, the slide is selected:

The dot to the left of each slide indicates the scan magnification selected for that slide. (The colors match the magnification

levels shown on the Magnification icon.)
