Adding and linking Sub Process tasks

About this topic This topic describes how to add a sub-process to a protocol and

configure it. Read this topic if you are an administrator or technician

and are responsible for creating protocols in VWorks or BenchWorks

software.

Before you read this Before you read this topic, become familiar with the topics in the

VWorks Version 3 Automation Control User Guide or BenchWorks

Automation Control User Guide describing what a protocol is and how it

is created.

Sub Process task

defined

Sub Process tasks indicate the existence of a subroutine within a

protocol. Sub-processes typically contain a series of liquid handling

tasks used by devices such as the VPrep Pipettor or Multimek dispenser.

Adding a Sub

Process task

The first step in creating a pipette process is to add a Sub Process task to

the protocol editor. Drag the Sub Process icon into the process.

Setting Sub Process

task parameters

When you add the Sub Process task, a new sub-process is started in the

pipette process editor. This process is identified by its sub-process link

icon.

Because you can have more than one sub-process in a protocol, you

ust link the Sub Process task to the correct sub-process.

To link the Sub Process task to the correct sub-process:

1. In the

Protocol Editor, add a Sub Process task to the protocol and

then select it in the protocol sequence.

2. In the

Protocol Task Parameters toolbar, select the sub-process that

you want to use for this pipetting task from the

Use Sub Process list.
