from left to right.

First select your general application, then select the particular stain or
medium you are using. If you select the chemiluminescent application under
“Blotting,” you also have the option of selecting High Resolution or High
Sensitivity (see below).
When you select an application, the software automatically sets the
appropriate standard filter (520LP, 530DF60, 610LP, clear, or none), light type
(UV, white, or none), and light source (trans, epi, or neither) in the Fluor-S for
that particular application.
For applications involving trans illumination, you must also specify a scan
dimension (see below).
Your selection will be displayed below the Select button. To exit the tree
without selecting, press the ESC key.
