STEP RUN allows the linking-together of up to three sets of
programmed run parameters to automatically perform step run
protocols. When step run is selected, the specified programs
must specify the same rotor at similar temperatures. Step runs
can be saved to program memory (program numbers 10-15) for
simple recall in future use (see SAVE RUN below).
•
SAVE RUN allows pre-programming of up to 15 different sets of
run parameters (9 standard runs, and 6 step runs) for future
simple recall and error-free run reproducibility. In addition to
basic parameters, all option selections and settings (excluding
rotor name and overtemperature limit) will also be saved to
program memory. To eliminate inadvertent loss of existing
programs, the save run sequence alerts users before overwriting.
The convenient RECALL key allows browsing through existing
programs for selection or reference.
NOTE
If you plan to use the QC RUN feature, specific guidelines
should be considered when saving parameters to memory
(see QC RUN on page 3-6).
Numeric Keypad
The grey Numeric Keypad is used to input speed, time, and
temperature values into the HOME screen and to select the advanced
features. The ENTER key enters newly inputted speed, time,
temperature, and RCF values into memory; it also allows you to
bypass options in the OPTIONS sequence without selecting or
deselecting them. The CLEAR key sets a blinking value to zero in
the SET display; it is also used to clear entry errors or fault messages.
The +/– key is used to toggle between positive (+) and negative (–)
temperature values.
