If There’s a Power Failure
Automated Restart
Function
An automated restart function allows for power outages and safe continuation of a
PCR run after resumption of power.
If Power Is
Interrupted
The instrument does the following in a power failure:
1. Restarts or continues the PCR experiment.
The instrument determines what temperature was being approached, or was
holding.
Upon resumption of power, it will go to that temperature and count down the time
remaining in the hold as soon as the temperature is within the specified clock start
limit.
2. Incubates the samples until such time as the experiment can be continued.
3. Enters a record for any power outage in the history file.
