3. Edit the SOP details as required and then choose File-Save as tem-
plate.
4. In the Save SOP Template window, give the new SOP template a: Name (a
descriptive name for the SOP template), a Description and, if required, assign
a Category (previously added categories are available from the drop down
menu). Categories could be of assistance when your environment has multiple
SOP templates.
Additionally an image can be assigned to the template:
to assign a custom image.
to restore the template default image.
5. To save over an existing SOP template (i.e. to edit an existing template), select
Allow new template to override any existing template from the Save
SOP Template window. Also, ensure that the new template uses the same
name as the existing template.
Tip
To view a set of pre-selected SOP templates relevant only to the currently
attached dispersion unit, choose File-New from the Manual Measure-
ment settings window.
