Adjusting a Protocol
Within an existing protocol you can modify, deactivate, and rearrange the order of the pipetting steps. See the following tutorials to adjust a protocol.
Modifying Steps
Modify the pipetting steps in your selected protocol before executing it. To edit the protocol, use the Edit button 
and modify the step settings according to your preference. To remove a step, use the Delete Step 
button of the selected step.
Edit Step and Remove Step Buttons of the Selected Step
Important: If the edited step affects the associated steps within the protocol, a warning icon 
will automatically appear in the corresponding step, and the protocol cannot be executed. Check and edit the associated steps to continue.
Deactivating Pipetting Steps
Activate steps are indicated by the green check box icon 
. Sometimes you may want to execute a protocol without certain steps, without needing to delete them. To do this, uncheck the pipetting step(s) that you want to exclude from the execution. The FLO i8 will only execute the pipetting steps with a green check in the checkbox.

on each step into the desired position. In the Order Editor panel, you can revert 
, undo

the modified order. When you are satisfied with the order, click Apply
