Enter the MORE mode by pressing MORE . Choose between COPY, CLEAR and SETUP with
confirm with SET ENTER.
After choosing COPY you are asked which program should be copied. Programs that can be copied are
shown in the lower row on the display. Select with
Select to which program number the program should be copied. Empty (available) programs are shown
in the lower row. Select with
If an already programmed method is chosen, a warning is shown: "Program 7 not empty: Copy?". If
you answer YES, the program with this number is replaced by the one you have copied.
A message confirming that your instruction has been carried out is shown for a few seconds.
The program returns automatically to the start position in SET mode.
Deleting a program

After choosing CLEAR you are asked which program should be cleared. Programs that can be cleared
are shown in the lower row on the display. Select with
A message confirming that your instruction has been carried out is shown

The program returns automatically to the start position in SET mode.
Disabling the start current check
You can disable the start current check that otherwise detects that the resistance is not higher than a
specified limit. Disabling this check is important when performing certain applications such as the first
step in 2-D electrophoresis using Immobiline DryStrip. This disabling function is set in the MORE mode
instead of the SET mode in order not to confuse users who do not need this feature, and for safety
reasons.
Enter the MORE mode by pressing MORE. Choose between COPY, CLEAR and SETUP with
confirm with SET ENTER.
After choosing SETUP, the program asks you for the program number and if you want to keep the start
current check.
Choose program number and change between "YES" and "NO" by
ENTER. Choosing "NO" for start current check means that the function is disabled and high voltage
w
can be applied despite a very high resistance. Leave the MORE mode by SET ENTER or EXIT.
Warning! By disabling the start current check, the power supply can deliver high voltage even if it is
not connected to electrophoresis equipment.
Note that a message showing whether the start current check is ON or OFF is shown for a few seconds
every time RUN is pressed.

5.6 Choosing run parameters

EPS 3501 XL is an automatic cross-over power supply that allows the user to set limits for voltage,
current and power. It is also possible to program linear voltage gradients. During electrophoresis, only
one of the parameters is limiting at a time. The limiting parameter determines, together with the
