When using the keypad, protocols are selected for a run and for editing by their
number, so the MicroFlo retains the number it assigns. When a program is deleted, the
remaining programs are not renumbered. The deleted program’s position is filled with
the next created program or left blank.
This numbering convention holds true when transferring protocols from the computer
to the instrument using the LHC’s
Transfer Protocols feature.
How to name a protocol using the keypad:
NAME:_
- % & _
Top line: Enter Name
Second line: Select a symbol
Use Options button to scroll
through alphabet
Press
Shift + key A-H, or scroll through the alphabet with the Options key for
A-Z.
Shift + Options reverses direction.
Use the arrow keys to move the cursor within the display. It underlines the
current space.
The second line of the
NAME display offers four symbols - % & _ that can be
used in a protocol name: dash (hyphen), percent sign, ampersand, and
underscore. Press its corresponding SoftKey to include the symbol in the name.
Press
ENTER to store the completed name and continue. A protocol name must be
unique. If the name already exists, the dispenser will require you to change it. This
protects programs from inadvertently being overwritten.
Clear Entry
To delete an entry, press the CLEAR key.
