Edit Menu
Note: Irrespective of the Lock Freedom EVOware feature, users are automatically
logged out after a specified time during which no keyboard or mouse-click
activities have been detected (see 7 “Tecan User Management System”, 7-1).
6.1.10 Exit
This option closes all currently open scripts and/or processes, de-initializes the
instrument, saves configuration settings and quits Freedom EVOware.
6.1.11 Exit, Unload Drivers
To ensure that Freedom EVOware starts quickly, all of the Tecan drivers you have
chosen to use are loaded each time the PC is started and remain loaded while the
PC is running (see 5.1.2 “Driver pre-loading”, 5-2). Choose this option if you
want to unload the Tecan drivers when you quit Freedom EVOware. The drivers
should be unloaded e.g. if Freedom EVOware reports an internal error. The
drivers will be loaded again when you re-start Freedom EVOware.
If you run Freedom EVOware for an extended period without unloading the
drivers, this can result in a slight degradation of the performance (throughput of
your scripts and processes). Accordingly, we recommend you to unload the
drivers using the menu option Exit, Unload Drivers and then to restart Freedom
EVOware every six or seven days. Microsoft Windows, too, can suffer from a
slight degradation of the performance - independently of Freedom EVOware - if
you do not shut down and then restart your PC from time to time.
The driver pre-loading feature can be disabled in the Configuration Tool (see
8.4.1.1 “Device Information Tab”, 8-21).
Note: If you have made configuration changes using the Configuration Tool, the
drivers will be unloaded automatically when you quit Freedom EVOware.
6.2 Edit Menu
This menu lets you cut, copy and paste Freedom EVOware script commands and
process steps (see 11.4 “Setting Up a Pipetting Script in Freedom EVOware
Standard”, 11-4) and 11.5 “Setting Up a Process in Freedom EVOware Plus”,
11-7.
6.2.1 Undo / Redo
The two options in this sub-menu are used to undo and redo changes you have
made to a pipetting script in the Script Editor.
6.2.2 Undo / Redo Configuration
The two options in this sub-menu are used to undo and redo changes you have
made to the Freedom EVOware configuration settings for carriers, labware, liquid
classes and robot vectors.
