cycling conditions for Micro Fluidic Cards are set:
6. Save the document or continue without saving, as explained
in the following table:
7. Enter the sample names.
Sample names serve as keys to group samples for RQ
analysis.

Note: These instructions are
for running Micro Fluidic
Cards manually. For
instructions on batch
automation, refer to Chapter 6
of the user guide for the
7900HT system.
1. Save the Micro Fluidic
Card document as an SDS
template document (*.sdt).
2. Create a new Micro Fluidic
Card document (*.sds)
from the template.
3. Go to step 7.
