Introduction 1. MR7 Controller: the user interface and temperature controller. This comprises two internal subsystems: a. IO Control Board: measures the current temperature and adjusts the amount of liquid nitrogen or heat that is supplied to the chamber. b. Host Board: provides the user interface and downloads profiles to the IO Control Board to be executed.

A fourth access level, Planer Support, is also available but this login is only available to Planer support engineers. The access level of None is used to define users who may want to receive emails but otherwise cannot access the system.
2.3.5 Adding the port The port is the internal communication link in the MR7 Controller. The port is factory configured and does not normally need to be changed. The port will only need to be added if internal components are replaced as part of a service.
The application has not been licensed. 2.3.6.1.1 Control deviation alarms The rules for control deviation alarms generated by MR7 are defined below. Control deviation alarms are not generated while going to start. Control deviation alarms are not generated during the first two minutes after starting the actual profile.
Once a run has completed and the samples have been removed, the freezer should be returned to room temperature. To do this you should simply run a warming profile. MR7 : INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE MA200524-EN 5.0.430...

Getting started 10. Power down the MR7 using the “Shut down” button. 11. Power up the MR7 and test the use of the printer, when connected via USB cable. Switching off the system CAUTION Switching off the chamber at sub-zero temperatures may cause serious damage to the equipment.
Using a Planer pump and dewar Using a Planer pump and dewar This section describes how to use the Planer LNP4 pump and dewar. Filling a dewar WARNING Wear protective clothing. See Liquid nitrogen and vessels Never remove a pump from a dewar until the pressure gauge reading has fallen to zero.
Page 43
3. Press firmly on the top of the pump to hold it level and clip all the springs onto the dewar. Alternate between handles. 4. Close the pressure relief valve. 5. Connect the mains inlet of the pump power supply unit to the auxiliary power output on the rear of the chamber. MR7 : INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE MA200524-EN 5.0.430...
You will need to remove the pump whenever the dewar needs to be refilled. WARNING Wear protective clothing. See Liquid nitrogen and vessels Never remove a pump from a dewar until the pressure gauge reading has fallen to zero. 1. Switch off the equipment. MR7 : INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE MA200524-EN 5.0.430...

Profiles Automatic seeding Note Automatic seeding is not currently supported by freezers within the Planer range. With automatic seeding, ice nucleation is initiated by switching on an automatic seeding device when the chamber passes between a start and end temperature.
Click Next Note After editing a port definition or just after starting MR7, it may take a few minutes for the serial ports to be detected. If you receive a message stating that the freezer is unavailable, click No when asked if you want to continue, wait for a moment, and then try again.
Seeding samples 1. If manual seeding has been selected, the controller will prompt you when the samples are ready for seeding. 2. When seeding is complete, press OK to resume the profile. MR7 : INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE MA200524-EN 5.0.430...
At the end of the run, the controller will prompt you when the samples are ready for removal. The controller will hold the chamber at the end temperature until you confirm that all samples have been removed. MR7 : INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE MA200524-EN 5.0.430...
Once a run has completed and the samples have been removed, the freezer should be returned to room temperature. To do this you should simply run the warmup profile; see Creating a warming profile MR7 : INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE MA200524-EN 5.0.430...
Running profiles Viewing Kryofiles Kryofiles are the reports that are generated when a profile is run. You can either view the stored Kryofiles or retrieve the backup data from the MR7 Controller Note Many actions are initiated by clicking buttons on the toolbar at the bottom of the screen.
PDF: saves a copy of the report in PDF format. This will be saved in the export file location: see File locations 5.9.2.3 PDF (Email) PDF (Email): emails a copy of the report as a PDF file to the email address of the current user. MR7 : INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE MA200524-EN 5.0.430...
Advanced configuration . If this setting is false, MR7 will never try to resume a Kryofile in this way, and if any unexpected data are read from the freezer, they will be recorded as an anonymous run to a new Kryofile.
Infrequent tasks Web browser access MR7 System can be configured to allow remote access to some data using a web browser. If you are remotely accessing your data from outside of your network, it is recommended that you use a VPN.
