System open level
  1. General working hours: Level A
  2. Night and holiday period: not open

System Level Description
  • Level A: Open to students who need to use it. They can operate it on their own after training and assessment.
  • Level B: Each professor nominates one student for training, while the rest operate under those who have been trained. Professors with multiple students using the instrument can request an increase in the number of students receiving training.
  • Level C: The instrument administrator selects several students recommended by the professor to receive training. After passing the assessment, they can self-operate the instrument and be responsible for delegated operation service.
  • Level D: The laboratory's technical staff only accept delegated services and are unavailable for general use.
