Update Layouts
There are two main things to do for layouts.
1. Enable UncertAttrib (Specifications)
On both the Equipment and Template layouts, ensure UncertAttrib (Specifications) is enabled. This lets you review pipette and balance settings at a glance.
Open the relevant layout and choose File → Dialogs:
File → Dialogs menu
This opens Setup Dialogs for the layout. Make sure UncertAttrib is checked as visible. You probably already have TestPoints checked, but this is a good time to confirm.
Setup Dialogs — UncertAttrib visible
2. Create hyperlinks for project scripts
Create hyperlinks for the various script projects on your layouts.
| Layout | Required hyperlinks (minimum) |
|---|---|
| Equipment | PIPETTE METHOD SETUP, PIPETTE BALANCE SETUP |
| Template | PIPETTE METHOD SETUP, PIPETTE BALANCE SETUP |
| Home (admins only) | MIGRATE PIPETTE SETTING (if upgrading from 12.1 or earlier) |
ADVANCED RS232, TEST RS232, and TEST SARTORIUS SPEEDCAL can all be added to any layout.
Adding a hyperlink
The screenshot below shows text with a hyperlink. The text is Pipette Method Setup, and at the bottom of the window you can see both the text and the hyperlink:
Text with hyperlink
You can use any text or image for the hyperlink. Once it's on the layout, select it, right-click, and choose Hyperlink:
Right-click → Hyperlink
Confirm the selected text and enter the hyperlink:

Available hyperlinks
| Hyperlink |
|---|
EQUIPPROJECT=ADVANCED RS232 |
EQUIPPROJECT=MIGRATE PIPETTE SETTING |
EQUIPPROJECT=PIPETTE BALANCE SETUP |
EQUIPPROJECT=PIPETTE METHOD SETUP |
EQUIPPROJECT=TEST RS232 |
EQUIPPROJECT=TEST SARTORIUS SPEEDCAL |
Use these exact values regardless of whether you're modifying a Template, Home, or Equipment layout.
TEST RS232 is still available, but ADVANCED RS232 is far more useful and is intended as its replacement.
