6 Acquiring Images
Image Lab software runs specific applications with repeatable workflows using
configurable protocols that have a wide variety of settings. These protocols can be
retrieved, revised, and reused.
In Image Lab, a protocol is any combination of settings for imaging, analyzing, and
reporting that runs as a single workflow.
A protocol allows you to choose one application for acquisition of a single image
from a sample, with the exception of signal accumulation mode (SAM) for
chemiluminescence.
To create a new protocol
 Click New in the Protocol box on the Start Page, or choose New Protocol on
the toolbar or menu bar.
