This section explains how to set up the centrifuge using the options of the Settings main screen.
The “Settings Main” screen opens up when you tap the
Settings icon in the navigation Bar and features
eight buttons. Seven of the buttons provide instant access to sub-menus that let you activate additional features,
change the factory default settings to customize the centrifuge to your needs, and modify items entered during
the initial setup process.

Most of the settings are open to normal users, but some require advanced user privileges. Where this is the
case, you will be prompted to enter an administrator passcode. The eighth button, labeled Service, is reserved to
Thermo Fisher Scientific service technicians and requires even more advanced user privileges. This is indicated
by the padlock icon on the button.
Instructions for using the screens opened by the buttons on the “Settings Main Screen” appear in the following
sections.

Tapping the Alarms button on the “Settings” screen takes you to the “Alarms Settings” screen.

Save button.
