3. Unlock program
. The first time you use this feature,
you must supply a code to unlock the program on the
Unlock Programming screen.
If you purchased this option with the Anoxomat, the
code is found on the red protection label. If you
purchased this option later, the code is supplied by your
local dealer.
Enter the code and press Ok . The New Recipe screen
appears.
4. Define end percentage O2 . In the gas composer
partition of the screen, define the end concentration
O2 either by moving the scroll bar to the right, or by
using the scroll button. The result is visible in the
result partition.
5. Define other gas components . After defining the O2
level, the Gas 1 level has to be moved at least one click
to the right. If more than one gas cylinder is
connected and defined, more options for gas
composition appears on the screen. For example, if a
100% CO2 gas is connected, the ability to determine
the CO2 end-concentration in the jar is available. Your
choice is limited by the specified O2 percentage and
the composition of the gas in the secondary cylinder.
More than one solution is possible. By changing the
position of the scroll bars of Gas 1 and Gas 2, the result
of the mixture becomes different.
6. Define maximum evacuation level .
The catalyst test is only performed in case a required
oxygen level of 0% has been chosen. The “No Catalyst
Test” button, should be used when creating a new recipe
and a catalyst is a not required.
The maximum evacuation level in standard recipes is a
default setting of 205 mbar. As this may be harmful to
the culture or the agar, recipes can be adapted to 400,
500 or 600 mbar. Depending upon the required O2 level,
the Anoxomat may perform more cycles than usual to
reach the gas mixture in the jar.
7. Specify the recipe name . Click in the space and the
screen keyboard appears. Enter the description for this
recipe. The name and other relevant information of the
recipe appears in the Active Program section on the
Main screen.
8. Save the recipe . Press Close to save your new recipe.
The recipe can be revised at any time.
Changing a user-defined recipe
