price list | download | prospectus | home
The protocol editor is a completely new feature of PatchMaster. With this editor, complex experimental procedures can be designed, stored, and executed. This tool greatly increases the versatility of PatchMaster and provides means for automatic experiment performance. The principal idea of the protocol editor is to generate a list of events or tasks, which then are executed automatically. Various functions such as REPEAT LOOPs, input queries, or conditional statements allow for the generation of complex interactive processes. The features offered by the protocol editor will be appreciated by scientists asking for complex, precisely timed experimental protocols. In addition, the high degree of automation possible increases efficiency, minimizes ex-perimental errors and is thus suited for industrial applications.
