2. To resume the protocol, touch the Resume button.

Skipping Steps in a Protocol

Skip a step if it is necessary to shorten a protocol while it is still running. By repeatedly

skipping steps, it is possible to bypass several cycles of a GOTO loop and shorten a protocol.

1. To skip the current protocol step in the status screen, touch the Skip button.

2. Touch the Skip button multiple times to skip more than one step.

Canceling a Run

A protocol may be canceled while it is running. When the protocol is canceled, the block

immediately stops changing temperature.

NOTE: Do not turn the thermal cycler off immediately after canceling a run. The

fans should be allowed to run long enough to cool the block.

To cancel a protocol running on a single block:

1. Open the status screen.

2. Touch the Cancel button to stop the protocol running on a single block.

NOTE: To cancel a protocol running on multiple blocks, select each block

individually from the dropdown list and touch the Cancel button. Continue until the

protocol is canceled on all blocks.

Incubating Samples

You may keep samples at a constant temperature for any amount of time.

WARNING! Incubating samples for extended periods of time at 4–10°C,

particularly in areas of high humidity, can cause excessive moisture condensation

around the block.

To start incubating samples at a single temperature:

1. Touch the INCUBATE button on the home screen.
