Process Multiple
Plates in a Batch
You can prepare multiple plates per batch as needed while creating a
batch. When the wells from one microtiter plate are full, another
plate appears on the screen to make room for additional samples. The
new plate appears to the immediate right of the existing plate image
on the screen with a dark line between the adjacent columns of the
two plates.
Figure 66. Processing Multiple Plates
The samples on the next plate use the same template that the samples
in the first plate use.
During acquisition for the batch, when all of the wells on the first
microtiter plate have been tested, the system pauses and prompts you
to insert the next plate.
‹ To process multiple plates during a batch:
1. When you create the batch, enter all the samples you need. New
plates appear automatically as needed.
If you do not know how to create a batch, see “Create a New
Batch” on page 7-39. Click Finish.
