Short run
A short run can be started if no run is active.
• Keep the start key pressed during the short run.
During the short run, the centrifuge accelerates with the acceleration curve
9 (maximum) until the maximum permissible speed of the rotor is reached.
The runtime is counted and in the "Time" field the indication "Short" is
displayed.
When the start key is released, the centrifuge decelerates to a standstill
based on the maximum deceleration curve.
When the short run is completed, the original parameters (curves, runtime,
and final speed) are restored and displayed.

Rotor selection
This field shows the rotor that is currently being used.
NOTE
The rotor selection can only be changed when the centrifuge is at a
standstill.
• Select the "Rotor" field and confirm the selection. The indication "set"
flashes in the activated status.
• Select the desired rotor. If there are rotors with several different types of
possible buckets, the various combinations will be displayed one after
the other.
• Confirm the input. The selected rotor or rotor/bucket combination will be
adopted.
