Software
As with all automation, simple, graphical and easy-to-use software is essential. The Flexus is no exception and its software excels. With its simple and intuitive interface, and powerful commands, the most complex methods can be programmed simply.
A drag’n’drop approach is used extensively; for example, to create a visual layout of your deck. A large database is included with many standard deck items already created, such as shallow and deep well plates, troughs, etc., so that you can focus on your application and not on the software.
The Flexibility to Let You Focus on Your Application- Not the Programming
- Icon-driven point and click commands
- Password encrypted User levels
- On-line GLP reporting and log file generation
- Powerful advanced pipette setting and liquid classes
- On-line sample database
- Pre-optimized software packages available (ELISA, DMPK, etc)
- Import/export work lists, results, log files to LIMS using common database techniques
- Method simulation helps you test a new method before running
- Multi-layer pipetting; i.e. pipette at different heights at the same location
- Powerful error handling
- Control multiple systems
In conjunction with the applications software, Scheduling Software gives the Flexus maximum flexibility and robustness, simplifying procedures from high throughput screening to nucleic acid extraction. The dynamic scheduler re-schedules processes in real time and displays the progress of the process in a graphical format.
- Continuous loading of plates or tubes
- User notifications via email, pagers, SMS, etc.
To facilitate easy communication with third party devices and software, an Active X Interface is available.
