Editing the Parameters of a Protocol
Follow these steps to edit the parameter values of an existing custom protocol. Note

2. Make the changes to the protocol parameters.
a. If the “ Modify RPM/Time ” Button is enabled, touch it so that the RPM and
Spin Time parameters are modifiable. If the “ Modify RPM/Time ” Button is
disabled, then the RPM and Spin Time parameters can already be edited.
b. Touch a parameter box to activate it; this will highlight both the parameter and
the arrow keys.
c. Use the arrow keys to change the value of the parameter.

Restoring the Parameters of a Protocol
The values of the RPM and Spin Time parameters for any custom protocol may be
restored to the recommended Standard Protocol algorithm settings at any time.
These are the values used for the Standard Protocol, and are determined by the
selected volume of whole blood or the blood mixed with bone marrow to process.
As the volume is changed, the RPM and Spin Time parameters are changed to
optimize platelet collection.
To restore the parameters of a protocol, follow these steps:
1. From the Protocol Pull-Down Button, select the protocol you wish to restore.
2. Touch the “Restore” Button.
3. Touch the Close Button to return to the previously displayed screen.
