NOTE
To begin a run, [

key pressed before pressing [

more than 5 seconds, the [
START
] key will not
activate. If this happens, press [
ENTER
] and
[
START
] again to begin the run.
If an unacceptable value was entered, the run will not begin when
[
ENTER
] and [
START
] are pressed. Check the display and make any
necessary corrections or additions. Press [
ENTER
] and [
START
] again to
begin the run.
The run will end when the time display counts down to zero. (Press
[
STOP
] to terminate a run for any reason.) The green light next to the
[
STOP
] key will flash while the rotor decelerates. A tone sounds when
the rotor comes to a complete stop.
2. After the rotor has stopped,
press [
DOOR
].
The door is unlocked.
3. Remove the rotor. Keep the
chamber door closed
between runs.
PROGRAMMED OPERATION
The instrument internal memory can store up to nine programs which
can be recalled by keypad numbers 1 through 9. Saved programs are
retained in memory even if the power is turned off. Procedures for
entering run parameters are the same for programmed operation as
those described above for manual operation.
