LinLab
LinLab software is included with every Scientifica motorised system and enables you to configure your devices to suit you, and your experiment. Our quick, easy-to-follow video guides walk you through common setup and configuration steps, so you can maximise the potential of your equipment.
Viewing and zeroing coordinates
The LinLab software enables you to visualise positional information of the XYZ axes, providing precise coordinates and measurements, particularly important for in vivo recordings. This video gives an overview of how the XYZ coordinates are displayed and how they can be adjusted or reset through the LinLab software.
Wheel direction
For some users the direction of travel of the control device wheels - clockwise or anti-clockwise - doesnt feel natural. Use LinLab to configure the direction of travel on your controller's wheel to suit you.
Snail mode
Setting up Snail Mode in LinLab enables you to automate the movement of your probe over a maximum travel distance and at a predefined speed. The same movement can be used multiple times to incrementally approach your area of interest.
Speed control
Use LinLab to tailor the speed and acceleration settings of your devices to match your specific sample and application requirements, giving you flexibility and control.
Stored points
Set up and store multiple points in LinLab using the Memory + and Memory Recall functions, enabling you to return to specific points of interest at the click of a mouse.
Home In / Home Out
Use LinLab to set up Home In/Home Out positions to enable the swift removal and exchange of pipettes in seconds, then quickly return to your area of interest at the click of a button.
These can also be offset to accommodate variations in probe length.
Follow Function
Setting up the Follow Function in LinLab synchronises your Scientifica motorised devices, keeping pipettes aligned to the sample as you move the stage or microscope. This speeds targeting and helps maintain stable recordings, and is especially useful for multipatch setups where relative pipette positioning is critical.
Scientifica LinLab
LinLab is a versatile electrophysiology control software designed to give you advanced control over your motorised Scientifica device.
