1. Description
The middle of the display shows the wavelengths for absorbance/excitation and emission.
The right side of the display shows the data received from the reading as absorbance,
percent transmission, fluorescence emission or excitation, or luminescence, and indicates
whether or not a reference measurement was made (enunciator blinks if no reference
reading was taken).
To change the contrast on the control panel, press and the temperature up or

Temp On/Off Key
The key enables and disables the incubator that controls the temperature
within both the microplate chamber and the cuvette port.
>
When the incubator is on, the set temperature and actual temperature are shown on the
front panel LCD display.
>
When the instrument is performing a kinetic or spectral scan, the temperature keys on
the front panel are disabled.
Tem p K e y
The keys allow you to enter a set point at which to regulate the microplate
chamber temperature.
Pressing this key scrolls the temperature up or down, starting at the previous temperature
setting (or the default of 37.0°C, if no setting had been made):
>
Pressing the up (S) or down (T) arrow once increments or decrements the displayed
temperature by 0.1°C.
>
Pressing and holding either arrow increments or decrements the displayed temperature
by 1°C until it is released.
You cannot set a temperature beyond the upper (45°C) or lower (15°C) instrument limits.
