4-38 Run Setup and Basic Operation<br />

Once all plate documents have been loaded into the Plate Queue and the Instrument<br />

Control options are configured you may start the plate queue.<br />

To begin the plate queue, click Start Queue from the Plate Queue tabbed page.<br />

The <strong>ABI</strong> PRISM <strong>7900HT</strong> <strong>Sequence</strong> <strong>Detection</strong> <strong>System</strong> loads the first plate, scans the<br />

bar code, and the begins the run.<br />

Note Before starting a real-time run, the instrument may pause (up to 15 minutes) to heat the<br />

heated cover to the appropriate temperature.<br />

The Automation Controller Software displays the progress of the current run in the<br />

Thermal Status tab. See page 4-25 for an explanation of the Thermal Status tab.<br />

To stop the plate queue, click the Stop button on the Automation Controller Software<br />

dialog at any time.<br />

If the Stop button is clicked... Then the instrument...<br />

while the plate handler is handling a plate aborts the run and moves the plate handler to<br />

the home position.<br />

after a plate has been loaded into the<br />

instrument, but before the run has started.<br />

after the <strong>7900HT</strong> instrument has started a<br />

run.<br />

aborts the current run, ejects the plate, and<br />

moves the plate handler to the home position.<br />

aborts the current run, ejects the plate, and<br />

moves the plate handler to the home position.<br />

IMPORTANT Stopping a run during thermal<br />

cycling can affect the chemistry of the<br />

reactions within the plate. Before stopping a<br />

run, carefully read the guidelines on page 4-26<br />

to determine the best course of action.<br />

To eject a plate following a halted run, click Open/Close from the Automation<br />

Controller Software window.<br />

The run can be analyzed immediately following the completion of the run:<br />
