The Control Panel
Figure 1.2 : Control Panel
The control panel consists of an LCD and 15 pressure-sensitive membrane
keys—all the controls necessary to perform stand-alone operation of the SPEC-
TRAmax 340PC. The control panel can be used to configure the instrument set-
tings, store and recall assay protocols, and to initiate readings. When you press a
control panel key, the SPECTRAmax 340PC begins the desired action.
When using Molecular Devices’ SOFTmax PRO software to control the
SPECTRAmax 340PC from an external computer, the LCD will show
“Remote Control” during the time SOFTmax PRO is running. During
computer-controlled operation, the front control panel keys are disabled.
If you quit SOFTmax PRO, the LCD returns to normal and the front
control panel keys will function as before.
