See how to integrate Python into the Nikon NIS-Elements JOBS module to build a smart, feedback-driven microscopy workflow. The Python node reads internal JOBS variables and renders a live plot of the cumulative cell count as acquisition progresses. Using the JOBS “Wizard,” you can launch a streamlined GUI that exposes only the adjustable inputs—without showing the full workflow.

Workflow demonstrated:
Set a target cell count
Acquire images from selected wells
Count cells per image
Compute the cumulative cell count
Display live plots of per-image and cumulative counts
Automatically stop acquisition and notify when the target is reached
If the target isn’t reached by the end, show a corresponding message

Ideal for users who want to combine automated acquisition with real-time analytics and simple control interfaces in NIS-Elements.
