Logging In To or Logging Off the C1000 Touch Thermal
Cycler
Logging in to the C1000 Touch thermal cycler is optional. A user can run, edit protocol
templates, and create folders and protocols without logging in. When a user selects the New
User option, a corresponding user account is created. Only a user who is logged in can save,
edit, or delete protocols in their folders.
Once logged in, a user has privileges to:
• Run a protocol on the main instrument or USERS folder
• Create and edit protocols in the corresponding USERS folder
• Copy any protocol and save it to a USERS folder
• Copy a protocol and store it in a USERS folder with a new name
Use the following steps to create a new user:
1. Touch the Log In button on the home screen to open the user login screen.
2. Touch the New User button.
3. Touch the User Name button and enter a user name using the pop-up alphanumeric
keypad.
4. Touch the Password button to enter a user password (this is optional).
5. Touch the Email Address button to enter a user email address (this is optional). If an
email address is entered, an email message will be sent to the address upon run
completion if the user is logged in when a run is started.
6. Touch the Create User button.
