User Intervention

The User Intervention program element informs the operator of the instrument to execute a definite action
during the workflow at a certain time.

If for example the Move Plate program element is used to move the plate out to perform a certain action,
then the entered text should inform the operator to perform these actions. A dialog box shows the message

to move the plate in after pipetting to continue the workflow.
