Use the History feature to view protocol tasks that you previously ran on your device. It allows you to inspect the results and re-run the task with the option to modify the settings used previously.
If you run a task more than once with different settings, you can retrieve the specific settings for that date/time by opening it from the History pane. From here, you can select a task to open it, view the results that were generated previously, and re-run the task.
