Slide label mode - use this setting before running a batch to match the format
of the slide labels in the cassettes. The pull down menu lists the types the
Imager Duo can accept. No mixed label types are allowed in a cassette and no
mixed cassettes are allowed in a batch. If the wrong slide label type is selected
and a batch begins, after rejecting 3 slides, an error will occur and the next cas-
sette is attempted. The instrument will attempt to read all cassettes present and
then end the batch if each of the first three slides in each cassette is rejected.
