: To press the pause button requires manual interaction. The Biometra TRIO
software also allows to program a pause step (see chapter "Edit parameter or step"

Note
: If the instrument is switched off during a pause step, this will be recognized as a
power failure (a referring error message is written to the Run-Logfile). For example, if
