Reusing a Protocol
User Guide | 23
Reusing a Protocol
You can use a saved protocol as a template for your experiment. You can make
changes to a copy of the saved protocol — for example, you might change the
number of unknown samples.
To reuse a saved protocol
1. Click New From on the toolbar to open the Select Protocol dialog box.
2. Select the protocol you want to use and click OK.
3. In the protocol dialog box, make any changes to the selected analytes, the
plate formatting, and the standards information.
4. When you are done making changes, click OK.
Editing a Protocol
The Edit command opens the protocol dialog box for the protocol currently
displayed in the Create/Run Protocols view. You might want to edit a protocol in the
following situations:
 You make changes to a saved protocol to match the changes in your
experiment. The most common change is to the number of unknown
samples in the experiment.
 You run a protocol and discover that there is a low bead count, indicating
that the wrong analytes might have been selected. You can change the
selection of analytes in the protocol dialog box.
