MENU Key and OPTIONS
The MENU key accesses advanced feature options listed above it,
plus other features such as saving parameters to memory. After
pressing MENU, pressing 1 accesses a secondary screen to view or
enter values, plus confirm option selection; pressing 0 deselects
options; pressing ENTER steps through options without changing
selections or settings, and on secondary screens, enters values to select
the option. Pressing MENU again exits the options and returns to the
HOME screen without entering/selecting a flashing value. Automatic
logging of QC RUN and daily run data is possible using WatchLog
Network™ software (packaged with the optional network computer
interface package) on a dedicated computer.
• QC RUN allows simple, automatic quality control run speed/
temperature verification when used with the optional computer
interface package. The QC RUN feature will run and document
the data from each set of parameters that has been saved in
program memory.
When QC RUN is selected, the SET screen will prompt you to
prepare for the run and press START to begin – the centrifuge
will start running program number 1, and systematically run each
program in-order through program number 9. While the QC
RUN is in progress, the parameters of the program that is running
will be in the SET display. At the end of each program, the data
from that segment of the QC RUN sequence will be written to the
QC RUN log. If STOP is pressed while a QC RUN is in progress,
the data collected up through the last program completed before
termination will be logged (data from the program that was in
progress will be logged and labelled incomplete). If a system
fault occurs while a QC RUN is in progress (other than a
computer failure, disabling WatchLog Network™), the data
would be logged as if STOP was pressed, and a fault type will be
recorded.
