Warning: Make sure that the incubation temperature is correct when loading the plates and during the incubation.
The instrument does not give an error if the actual incubation temperature deviates from the target incubation
temperature.
6. When the timer reaches zero, the green LEDs will blink and, if so configured, the instrument will start to beep (see
Setup on page 16, "audible alerts" to control the sounds). The timers will begin to count up, showing how long has
elapsed since incubation was completed.
7. Remove the plate holders with plates. The green LEDs will stop blinking and the timers will disappear. When all
plates have been removed, the beep will stop.
Warning: The plate incubates for as long as the temperature remains high enough unless it is removed from the
instrument.
Adding plates during operation
If there is space, you can load additional plates after incubation has started.
Press the Start/Pause button. Shaking will stop and the timers will
pause.
Load the additional plates, in their plate holders, into the empty
incubation chambers.
Press the Start/Pause button. Incubation will resume.
Note: For any plate just loaded, (including one that has been temporarily removed and then reloaded) the incubation
timer will reset and start from the beginning. For a plate that has not been removed, the timer will resume from when it
paused.
Note: Make sure all plate holders are loaded into the instrument. The instrument will not start if all the plate holders
are not loaded. A single missing or not properly loaded plate holder prevents the operation from starting for all three
chambers.
Remove each plate when it becomes ready. After removing a plate and pushing the plate holder back into the
instrument, press the Start/Pause button so that the other plates continue incubation. The green LEDs and the
( optional ) beep will indicate when each is ready.
Warning: The plate incubates for as long as the temperature remains high enough unless it is removed from the
instrument.
Note: If you are using interval shaking and the interval is large compared with the total incubation time, a plate that is
added after incubation is started may not get the same proportion of shaking and rest as the other plates because the
interval timer does not reset for newly loaded plates.
