UPGRADING FROM P

G
The standard Prime thermal cycler can be easily and quickly upgraded to the gradient PrimeG version
by purchasing the PrimeX/USB upgrade. The upgrade consists of a license certificate printed with a
unique upgrade code which allows gradient functionality to be installed on any non-gradient Techne
Prime thermal cycler.
Purchase of this license certificate authorises the owner of any non-gradient Techne Prime thermal
cycler to lawfully utilise the gradient capability of that thermal cycler in all European and American
geographies. The license is machine-specific and non-transferable.
Gradient upgrade procedure:
•
Turn on the Prime unit.

On the home screen, touch Settings and then
More Settings, followed by Add Gradient
Feature.
