[Histonet] processor died overnight

[McNabola, Angela]

It has happened to us as well.  I'm not sure where you work, but our processors have alarms that go to security.  So I have gotten a call on off hours to come in and fix the problem or try to trouble shoot.  Some of the newer processors can be linked to your phone, etc.

In your professional experiences, would these tissues be salvageable? Could I create a new program on the backup processor that finishes the process from that point and transfer the tissues over?
