The protocol steps are listed across the top ribbon as per the Protocol Builder. Click on one of the
step numbers to take you to the step selected and show you the information specific to that step.
The example shows the details for step 12, Load Leukopak & remove Platelets. The volumes
displayed in the volume boxes in the Step Summary tab, are the volumes in each bag at the
completion of the step. The maximum capacity for each bag is shown to the right of the box. If the
volume in the bag at the end of the step exceeds the capacity, it will be highlighted in red.
Note: A scroll bar is provided at the right of the bags to display additional bags in use.
Step Summary also shows the following for each step:
• Trigger that will cause the step to end
• Pump flow rate (mL/min)
• Centrifuge speed (G)
Loops within a protocol are also illustrated in the ribbon at the top including which loop number is
currently being performed. In the example shown we are on step 12 of the first loop comprising steps
11 to 15.
Below the step ribbon are several control buttons:
