Introduction

CFX Automation Control Software and CFX Manager

Software are used together to

interface for controlling all automation processes. CFX Manager Software is used to create
plate setup files and cycling protocols, control the CFX System thermal cycling processes,
and analyze data. Refer to the CFX System instruction manual (bulletin #10021337) for
detailed information about CFX Manager Software. To use CFX Manager Software and the
