7.10 Protocol execution
When you reach this screen the cells should be in the chambers, the manifold and should be primed with the
input solutions and the temperature of the incubator and tray should be at their set points. On this screen you can
start your Perifusion experiment by hitting the PLAY button. The flow rate, manifold state, and movement of the
tray will be automatically handled by the machine. The machine will only require your input in special cases (as
described in previous sections), or when the machine requires manual change of the sample tray. This screen is
primarily used, as its name suggests, to monitor experiment progress.
