2.7.6 Routine – Control
The program 'Control' makes it possible for you to monitor and control the course of sample
processing in the system. The current operating state, the progress of the daily routine and
any possible error messages are also displayed. You can select a work cycle with the [Work
Cycle] button and control it with the [Standby] and [Run] buttons. When the system is
started any tubes that are still in RT-Transport are recognized. They are sorted into the
supposed error rack during processing.
Sequence of operation:
• Press the [Work Cycle] button
• Select the desired Work Cycle from the list box
• Start the selected Work Cycle with the [Run] button
In the normal routine sequence, the system is then controlled by inserting the drawers only.
If the system needs to be stopped, this can be done by pressing the [Standby] button. In
standby mode, all doors are unlocked and it is possible to access the system. To continue
working, close all doors and press the [Run] button.
NOTICE
If a drawer is open and - due to this - the system is not able to continue operation an acoustic
warning signal sounds.
