6.3.2.8 Curve menu
In this menu, free acceleration and deceleration curves can be created and
edited in compliance with certain restrictions (see chapter 11.3 -
"
Acceleration and deceleration curves
").
Fig. 24: Curve menu
Creating and editing an acceleration curve
NOTE
During a centrifugation run, curves can only be used for displaying
purposes. It is not possible to edit or delete them.
• Select the "Curve" menu. The curve editor will be displayed.
• Select a curve number between 20 and 29 under "Curve". If the
selected curve number is already used, the saved curve will be
displayed.
• Define the interval number of the process under "Int". For every curve,
up to ten intervals can be entered.
• Enter the interval time under "Time", but take the restrictions into
consideration (see below).
• Enter the desired acceleration under "RPM" or "RCF", but take the
restrictions into consideration (see below). The values are
interdependent
• For the first interval, a linear or quadratic rise can be selected under
"QUAD/LIN". All of the other intervals are linear.
The field “Total” shows the total runtime of the process. The maximum
runtime of a curve is dependent on the slope of the curve and on the final
speed of the rotor.
NOTE
Only the last curve interval can be edited.
