The temperature value will now appear orange in the
programming screen indicating that it contains a
modified function.
Note: It is not possible to have both a gradient and an
increment or decrement temperature in the same step.
TIME ENTRY
When touching a time parameter a time entry screen will open. There are two forms of time entry
screen:
• A simple form for adjusting the time of the program parameters such as initial denaturation and
final extension.
• An advanced form when programming step hold times within a cycling stage that includes the
options for introducing incremented/decremented time, for example in long PCR.
Simple time entry
• If necessary, first touch the button next to the
parameter (e.g. Initial denaturation) to turn it ON.
• Next touch the Time button.
A screen similar to that shown opposite is opened. The
maximum and minimum allowed values are indicated
depending on the parameter being set.
• Touch the white time area to open the time entry
screen.
