Auto Mode (Enterprise Edition only)
Auto Mode allows you to run cassettes automatically, as long as the barcodes
on the arrays match those in a Virtual Notebook’s bioprocessor maps (please
refer to the ProteinChip data manager software manual for more information
on Virtual Notebooks). You can run multiple cassettes automatically by
assigning sample properties and protocols to arrays using the ProteinChip data
manager software Virtual Notebook. First, enter the barcodes into a Virtual
Notebook bioprocessor map, then apply sample properties and protocols as
desired to the arrays. Next, place the cassette(s) into the reader. The software
will automatically associate the arrays with the appropriate protocols and begin
acquisition. The Auto Mode tab allows you to view the status of the current
automatic run, without having to take control of the reader.
