TEMPERATURE ENTRY
When touching a temperature parameter a temperature entry screen will open. There are two forms of
temperature entry screen:
• A simple form for adjusting the temperature of the instrument parameters such as the heated lid
and program parameters such as initial denaturation and final extension.
• An advanced form when programming step temperatures within a cycling stage that includes the
options for introducing an incremented/decremented step temperature, for example in touchdown
PCR, or a temperature gradient.
Simple temperature entry
• Enter the temperature, type in the required value.
The decimal point can be used for 0.1ºC resolution.
• To clear the entry press DEL.
• If an entered temperature is invalid, a prompt will
indicate the acceptable range.
• Once the temperature is correct, touch OK to return
to the previous screen.
• Touch Cancel to return to the previous screen if no
changes are required.
Advanced temperature entry
• First ensure the number of cycles for the stage has been set then enter the required hold
temperature as described above.
Note: Increase/Decrease Per Cycle will be inactive unless the number of cycles set is greater than 1.
• For an increase in temperature per cycle, touch
the button below Increase Per Cycle to turn this
function on. Next touch the temperature entry
button below this.
