Graphical User Interface
Control Panel (Region R2B)
The “Control Panel” in Screen Region R2B contains a complete set of controls for operating the functions of
the centrifuge. The inventory of buttons varies with the number of options built into the unit, as can be seen in
Figure 3–9 and Figure 3–10 .
The “Control Panel” is visible at all times below the “Home” Screen.
Figure 3–9 shows the “Control Panel” for a ventilated centrifuge.

Figure 3–10 shows the “Control Panel” for a refrigerated centrifuge.

The icons on the control panel are grayed out while inactive and surrounded by a light gray frame while the
function is in use. A frame dimmed to dark gray, as shown for the Pulse and Start buttons in the examples above,
indicates that the function is available, but currently not in use. Functions that are currently working are identified
by a light gray frame around the button, as shown with the Pretemp icon shown in
Figure 3–10 .
Tapping the Pretemp button and then the Start button starts pre-tempering
of the centrifugation chamber to the target temperature previously set in the
temperature box of the home screen. Tapping the Pretemp button one more
time stops pre-tempering. This button is deactivated (left) when the centrifuge is
running, activated (center) when the centrifuge is at standstill, and surrounded
by a gray frame (right) while pre-tempering is ongoing.
For more details, see
“Pre-Temper the Centrifugation Chamber” on page 3-11 .
The Pulse button launches a continuous or timed run of the centrifuge, as pre-
selected in the centrifuge’s settings. Tapping the Pulse button one more time (or
the Stop button) stops the centrifuge.
This button is deactivated (top) when the centrifuge is started using the Start
button, activated for launching Pulse mode when the centrifuge is at standstill
(center), and surrounded by a gray frame while the centrifuge is running in Pulse
mode (bottom).
For more details, see
“Run in Pulse Mode” on page 3-13 . The behaviour of the
button can be customized, see “Pulse Customization” on page 3-37 .
The Start button starts the centrifuge immediately, using the settings made in
the boxes of the “Home” screen. When the centrifuge is running, the button label
changes to Stop. Tapping the button one more time stops the centrifuge run
and reverts the button label to Start.
For more details, see
“Centrifugation” on page 3-12 .
The Open button unlocks and opens the centrifuge lid. This button is deactivated
(left) while the centrifuge is running or pre-tempering, activated (center) for
opening when the centrifuge is at standstill, and surrounded by a gray frame
(right) while the lid is open.
Navigation Bar (Region R3)
Besides of the “Home” button described in the section “Main Screen (Region R2)” on page 3-2 , the navigation
bar holds icons for all major settings and the event logs of the centrifuge. Figure 3–11 shows the two states of
the navigation bar.
By default the navigation bar (item 1 in
Figure 3–11 ) is visible to the left of the “Home” screen. By tapping the
Show/Hide arrow button (item 3 in Figure 3–11 ) in the middle, it can be hidden (item 2 in Figure 3–11 ) to show
more of the “Home” screen. Tapping the Show/Hide arrow button again redisplays the navigation bar.
