Creating and Saving Protocols
35
Note: You cannot edit protocol steps while running an
experiment. You can, however, pause the run and then edit any
steps that have not yet been performed.
8. To add steps to a protocol, select a step group or step and drag it into
the Protocol Steps list. You can also double-click a step group or step,
and it will appear last in your steps list. Each step is created with the
default parameters defined on the Protocol Configuration screen.
9. Change the step parameters as required for the experiment. A sample
panel is generated. You can edit the text boxes in this screen.
10. To change a previously defined sample, select a new sample from the
pull-down sample menu on the Protocol Steps screen.
To save a protocol as a template:
1. Select Open in the File menu to open the database browser.
2. Select a protocol.
3. Click Open, and the parameters appear.
4. Edit the new protocol as required.
5. In the File menu select Save as Template. You can rename the Template
File. If you do not, a “Copy of” prefix is added to the name so the
original protocol is not overwritten.

You can create a protocol without dragging steps from the Step list by using
the Create Protocol option in the Samples screen. This option enables you to
specify the typical step cycle of Blank, Analyte, and Regenerate steps. The
cycle of steps (block) is created for each analyte in the specified rack/plate.
You can also repeat cycles of steps. When you click Create, the steps are
automatically added to the protocol Steps list and also appear in the Protocol
Check table. The protocol is created from samples that were not already used
in other steps in the protocol.
