NOTES:
The highlighted temperature (Temp) value represents the current block temperature during Protocol running. The highlighted time
(Time) value below represents the remaining running time in the temperature segment. Once the countdown is completed, the
highlighted section will continue to move to the next temperature or cycle segment and start counting down the time.
The lid temperature will flash on the status bar when the Protocol starts and remain on until it reaches 50°C. When the lid reaches
50°C “HOT!” will appear in the right hand corner and remain until the temperature falls below 40°C. The sample block will start to
heat up when the lid temperature reaches its set temperature.
