3.14 – Change Plate Types
This utility allows the user to select the type of microplate (or tip box, omni tray,
etc.) that is located in any of the 4 plate-nest positions. It also allows the operator
to reset any used tip box count to zero, which would have the SOLO start
retrieving tips at the ‘A1’ tip position.
To change a plate type at any of the 4 positions, or to add a plate where the nest
was empty, click on the ‘down’ arrow of the box for that position, and a list of all
the defined plate types in the SOLOSoft database will be shown. Clicking on the
desired plate will add it to that position. The ‘OK’ button will save the changes,
while the ‘Cancel’ button will restore the original data. These changes will take
effect immediately and remain so while this method is loaded. In order to
preserve these changes the next time this method is loaded, the method itself must
be saved upon closing it.
