Processing status
The center of the window resembles the sample tray. The outer ring is the STT tray and
the inner ring is the CTT tray. Each tray position is a circle.
As the run continues, the circles containing samples change color. The colors indicate the
current status of each sample. The color codes are displayed at the lower-left of the
window.
For additional information about the color codes see page 41.

The button bar at the top of the window displays the Sample Search and Rack or LAS.
Sample Info. buttons.

Sample Search to display a dialog box where you can search for sample
information by sample number by STT position (tray number and sample position),
or by rack/LAS position (rack number and sample position).
The search returns a Sample Information window showing the sample number,
position number, sample status, and the time remaining to complete the analysis of
the sample.
