Figure 31. Detail of the initial screen for starting a protocol.
If a protocol is already running in this chamber, the running
program will be displayed.
Depending on the situation, different command buttons appear
at the bottom of the screen.
2. Select a protocol from the list and touch Start in the lower part of
the screen to start it.
Note!
Protocol duration: The time the protocol is expected to end is displayed on the
screen, taking into consideration the heating and reagent changing times.
3. In case a wait step is already defined in the protocol, you can
select No to change the defined fixed end of the protocol. This
corresponds to the definition of a fixed end time of a protocol - the
protocol will remain longer in the predefined wait step.
The No button appears only if a wait step was predefined in the
protocol.
Select Yes to go ahead and start the protocol.
Note!
Start time: If the start time is too late for the protocol to run and complete
within the remaining time, the end date automatically changes to the next
day, and the time box appears in red to indicate the postponement.
Note!
Unavailable reagents: If a protocol uses predefined reagents which are
not available in the instrument, the screen displays an error code and the
protocol is cancelled.
