Figure 15. Defining the format of a plate.
In the Define Plate Format dialog box, you can enter the numbers of Columns and
Rows in your microplate in the appropriate fields.
You can also choose how your columns and rows should be labeled—with Letters or
Numbers. The default labeling is numbers for columns and letters for rows; however,
if the number of rows exceeds 26, numbers will be substituted for letters.
You can enter a different name for your plate in the Plate Name field.
When you are finished making your selections, click on the OK button.
Defining the Physical Dimensions of the Plate
½
This feature is only available to users of the Ultramark.
If you need to change the physical dimensions of your plate (the distance from the
edge of the plate to the center of a well, the shape of the wells, etc.), click on the
Physical button. This will open the Physical Dimensions dialog box.
