Tasks - Detailed Descriptions
Your Method may consist of one or more of the
following tasks. Each task consists of a pre-defined
protocol, from which you select the required mode
of operation, and into which you insert the required
parameter values.
In-run Prompts
For optimization purposes, all volumes and flow
rates, which can be entered as parameters in a task,
can be defined as In-run Prompts. When editing
the task, you key in a value, and then a question
mark (?), the corresponding flashing value has to
be validated or changed before the Method runs. It
is not necessary to re-edit the method to modify the
chosen parameter.
