Plate Definition

This command allows you to choose a plate file from the drop-down list of available plates. The plate
definition files contain all relevant parameters of a specific plate type, e.g. coordinates of measurement
points, number of columns, number of rows, well form, well diameter, plate height, plate height with
cover…).
A graphic element at the bottom of the dialog visualizes the parameter which is currently defined.
