Phase Steps that occur
When you link:
• You use an option described in “Link the instrument to your Connect cloud-based
platform account“ on page 136 to link.
• If this is the first time you link, a Connect platform instrument and a local
instrument profile (with standard role) are created with the same name using the
FirstNameLastInitial
of the user name from your thermofisher.com account.
Example:
User1@thermofisher.com
First name is
User
, Last name is
Gray
.
Connect platform account username is
User G
.
• Your local instrument profile (
User G.
) is linked to your Connect platform account
(
User1@thermofisher.com
).
• Your Connect platform instrument profile (
User G.
) replaces your local instrument
profile.
After you link:
• Your Connect platform instrument profile (
User G.
) and is displayed in the
home screen of the instrument.
• Plates and results from your local instrument profile can be copied to the Connect
platform (see “Export results from the instrument (sample data files and QC
reports)“ on page 121).
• New plates and results are saved under your Connect platform instrument profile.
• Your Connect platform instrument profile name (
User G.
) is available for
selection in the Sign In screen.
If your Connect platform
account is unlinked:
• Your local instrument profile (
User G.
) is displayed in the home screen of the
instrument.
• Plates and results that were saved under your Connect platform instrument
profile are accessible under your local instrument profile.
• New plates and results are saved under local instrument profile and can be copied
to the Connect platform (see “Export results from the instrument (sample data
files and QC reports)“ on page 121).
• Your local instrument profile name (
User G.
) is available for selection in the Sign In
screen.
IMPORTANT! If you sign in with a local prole, without linking to the Connect
cloud-based platform, sign out, then link using Get Started4Connect, you can
potentially have two local instrument proles with dierent names. Plates are results
created when you are signed in with one local instrument prole are not accessible
when you are signed in with the other local instrument prole.
