• Built-in RS-232/USB communication ports for seamless data transfer to PCs (optional software available).
• Remote monitoring and control via LC GreenBox Mobile Monitoring System (optional).
• Compatible with Building Management Systems (BMS) for temperature monitoring and instant alerts to abnormalities (optional).
• Integrated with LC DataKeeper, a 21 CFR Part 11-compliant software, making it suitable for GMP-compliant audits (optional).

4. Enhanced Safety and Convenience

• Incorporates an advanced overheating prevention system (Patent 10-0397583) and over-temperature limiter.
• Designed to meet IEC Class II protection standards and DIN 12880 Class 3.1 temperature safety regulations.
• Logs the last 12 events, including run times, stops, and errors, for better performance tracking and analysis.
• Controller lock button prevents unintended adjustments.
• Audio-visual alerts notify users of abnormalities for quick action.

5. Features to Minimize Incubation Failures

• Includes an optional water tray to reduce media drying, extending incubation time.
• Auto-resume function restores previous operations within 30 seconds of a power outage.
• Enhanced operational stability through advanced error prevention and recovery systems.
