6.3.2.13 Input lock
In order to prevent the centrifuge from being manipulated by unauthorised
persons, inputs can be disabled via the menu. Inputs via the keypad, i.e. for
starting or stopping a centrifugation run or for opening the lid, are enabled.
Activating a simple input lock:
• Position the cursor over the symbol "
" in the lower right-hand corner
of the display.
As long as the symbol is displayed, the parameters of the centrifuge cannot
be changed.
Activating a permanent input lock:
• Press the start key three times and hold for approximately 2 seconds
when pressing it for the third time.
After the activation of this function, the padlock symbol flashes. The input
lock is activated.
• Proceed in the same manner in order to deactivate the permanent input
lock.
