IMPORTANT! While the 7500/7500 Fast instrument is performing a run, do not
create experiments, perform maintenance, or allow the computer to run antivirus
software or to enter hibernation. Performing such activities while the instrument is
running an experiment will cause gaps in data collection.
a. Load the reaction plate into the instrument.
b. Start the run
c. (Optional) Monitor the run.
d. Unload the reaction plate from the instrument.
