When a rack change executes, the protocol pauses until the pause time runs
out or until you click Start on the Run screen.
Setting a Pause Step
Use a Pause step to stop the instrument for buffer changes or for other
reasons.
To set a pause step:
1. Drag Pause in the Step list into the Protocol Steps list. The setting
appears in the Protocol Steps list, and the Step Details panel displays a
dialog box in which you can enter a descriptive name for the pause,
such as Change Buffer.
2. Type a reason in the Pause Message box.
3. Select the Enable Pause Time Out box and enter a time in the hr:min
box. The experiment resumes automatically after the specified amount
of time has elapsed.
