About this topic

About Microscan MS-3 Laser tasks

When the Microscan MS-3 Laser is added to the device manager, the task associated with the device becomes available in the protocol editor. When a task is added to a protocol, you need to set the parameters for it. This includes choosing the Microscan MS-3 Laser to use and the side of the labware on which the barcode is located.

This topic describes the task and its parameters.

Read this topic if you are:

An administrator or technician responsible for creating protocols

An operator who wants to make changes to the Microscan MS-3 Laser task parameters in a protocol

Note: Operators cannot save changes to protocols.

The Microscan MS-3 Laser device driver adds one task to VWorks or BenchWorks software. This task instructs the Microscan MS-3 Laser to scan a barcode.

The Microscan MS-3 Laser task is represented by this icon in the Protocol Tasks toolbar:
