4.1 The Status menu
The autoMACS Pro Separator is a sensor-controlled instrument that allows easy
monitoring during operation. After initialization, the screen automatically displays
the Status menu, which helps to monitor the instrument. It displays the current
instrument status and can be accessed at any time (see figure 4.1).
Color-coded symbols indicate the status of the hardware components. For further
information on a particular component, touch the symbol. A pop-up window will
open and detail more information. To close the pop-up window, touch the black
circle in the upper right corner of the window (see figure 4.2).
