7.3.2 Scan on Demand
In addition to the 24-Hour Repeating scan schedule, Users also have the ability to scan in
the Scan on Demand mode. Simplistically, this means that the IncuCyte™ can be used to
scan individual vessels at times when the IncuCyte™ is not scanning. This includes both
periods in between regularly scheduled scans in the 24-Hour Repeating scheduler, as well
as in designated Cooling Times. Scan on Demand allows Users to scan only one vessel in
one tray position at a time.
7.3.2.1 Properties: Once the Scan on Demand vertical tab is selected, the following
properties must be entered into the scheduler prior to scanning:
Tray Type
Tray Position
Cutout Position
Vessel Type
Scan Type
Scan Pattern
Channel Selection
7.3.2.2 Label and Unique ID: As with the 24-Hour Repeating schedule, vessel
Properties (label, cell type) are used to both describe the vessel and
searching for the vessel. In addition to a Label, Users can also supply a
Unique ID to each vessel. This Unique ID can either be generated manually by
typing or pasting information into the Unique ID field, or a Unique ID
correlating to the current year/day/time will be assigned to the Scan on
Demand vessel. This information can be used to link subsequent scans
together. However, it is important to note that if the User fails to type in, or
select (using the “Load” button) the correct Unique ID, scans will not be
linked together, and cannot be accomplished post scanning.
7.3.2.3 Timeline: Within the Scan on Demand scheduler, the 24-Hour Repeating
scan schedule (including all of the time bars) will be faded to the background,
but will remain clearly visible.
1. The current time will be indicated as in the 24-Hour Repeating scheduler,
but will be followed by the yellow Scan on Demand Time Bar.
NOTE: If the Scan on Demand Time Bar is red, this means that the Scan
on Demand scan time overlaps with a scan time in the 24-Hour Repeating
scheduler. Clicking on the red “Scan” button will result in an error.
2. Similar to the 24-Hour Repeating schedule, the width of the time bar will
correlate to the amount of time required to scan the vessel inserted into
the Scan on Demand Tray.
NOTE: The estimated time (indicated by the width of the yellow bar) to
scan in the Scan on Demand mode is ≈20% longer than the estimated
