PAGE 45
Freeze-dryer EPSILON 2-10D LSCplus 6 Operation The user interface is divided into four main windows that can be called up by touching the corresponding buttons: Manual This window is also the standard user interface. It is used to control the freeze-drying process manually. Program This area is used to create and execute programs for automating the freeze-drying process and for making it reproducible. This function is only available in combination with the programmer module PGMplus option.
PAGE 46
Freeze-dryer EPSILON 2-10D LSCplus 6 Operation Status line (1) This line shows the operating status of the freeze-dryer as well as the active phase. The status line also shows the current date and time. The clock is batterybuffered and must be reset after a failure (see chapter 6.5.1.3 - "Main window "Options"", section "Administration"). In addition, the drive symbol provides information concerning the status of the external data storage device or of the network drive.
PAGE 47
Freeze-dryer EPSILON 2-10D LSCplus 6 Operation Actual values of the current process (4) This area shows the current process data. The fields can be configured as desired: • Select the button of the field that is to be adapted. A dialog box opens: Fig. 26: Dialog box "Select actual value" • Select the desired configuration or quit the dialog box by pressing the "return" button. In this way, it is possible to configure a personalised overview of the actual values.
PAGE 48
Freeze-dryer EPSILON 2-10D LSCplus 6 Operation Option: USB process recording (see chapter 6.6 - "Optional extensions and special equipment") • Select the "Process recording" function in the dialog box "Tools". • Select the input fields ("Batch data"). A keyboard for the data input will be displayed. • If necessary, select the “Options” tab, choose between manual or automatic recording, and define a recording interval. • Press the "return" button in order to close the dialog box.

Freeze-dryer EPSILON 2-10D LSCplus 6 Operation Fig. 29: Dialog box "Pressure increase test" • The "Test stop" button stops the pressure increase test. Option: LyoBalance weighing system If the freeze-dryer is equipped with a LyoBalance weighing system (see chapter 6.6 - "Optional extensions and special equipment"), then the corresponding parameters must be configured in this dialog box.
PAGE 50
Freeze-dryer EPSILON 2-10D LSCplus 6 Operation Dialog box "Process and equipment messages" (7) This dialog box shows and saves all of the error messages and other messages. In the event of an error or message, the window “Process and equipment messages” will open automatically. In addition, a sound signal is emitted until the error is acknowledged.
PAGE 51
Freeze-dryer EPSILON 2-10D LSCplus 6 Operation Details Touching the message calls up details concerning the error message: • Cause of the message, • Effects of the message, • Measures to eliminate the error, • Reference designator, • Error counter (indicates how often this error has occurred) and the time stamp of the last error message. Use the arrow keys to call up the individual windows. The error message text is always followed by an error code.

Freeze-dryer EPSILON 2-10D LSCplus 12 Glossary 12 Glossary Aeration, stoppering, storage "Aeration, stopperting, storage" means automated sealing of the product vials with previously inserted rubber stoppers under partial vacuum and subsequent storage on the shelves at defined conditions as an integral part of a freeze-drying program.

Freeze-dryer EPSILON 2-10D LSCplus 12 Glossary Pressure increase test The pressure increase test can only be carried out with double-chamber method. During the pressure increase test, the intermediate valve prevents the flow of steam from the drying chamber to the ice condenser so that the water vapour of the sublimation cannot flow off. The result is a more or less distinct pressure increase that is measured in the product chamber.
