Operation software
The InsituPro VS is operated by a user friendly PC based operation software. Its graphical interface shows the layout of the work area, protocol listing and other important parameters. Pre-defined template protocols make it simple to adapt your existing manual protocols. With a few clicks and copy/paste operations you can adapt even the most complex protocols within a few minutes.
