Run a Protocol

All the Protocols you or the community developed on PhotosynQ can be used independent from Projects. When using the desktop application, those measurements can be saved to the notebook.

Desktop Application

Run a Protocol from the list or the Sidebar

There are two ways to run a Protocol outside of a Project. Open the list of Protocols by selecting Protocols from the left menu bar or using the shortcut Ctrl/⌘+3.

1. A Single Click on a Protocol from the list will bring up the information in the side bar. Select Run to start the Protocol.
2. A Double Click on a Protocol from the list will start it immediately.

Tip

You can use the protocols from others when you select Explore from the top menu.

Protocol Editor

The Desktop Application also allows to edit Protocols. When using the Protocol Editor, the Protocol can be started by selecting Run from the menu or the shortcut Ctrl/⌘+↵.

Mobile Application

The Mobile Application allows you to run Protocols without Projects as Quick Measurements. These measurements cannot be saved.

Run a Protocol as a Quick Measurement

1. Tap the overflow menu in the top left corner.
2. Select Quick Measurements from the menu.
3. Tap on a protocol in the list to run it.

Tip

Quick Measurements only show your Protocols. Use search to find a Protocols made by other users.
