2.8 Starting the dispensing run
If you want to do a dry run before actual dispensing, tap the Dry Run button in the
aspirate/dispense tab before proceeding. Use this mode to test dispensing runs. All
normal movement and operations occur, but the pin array remains in a raised position.
The pins do not dip into microplates or wash stations, and they do not lower onto
SpectroCHIP Arrays.
To start a dispensing run:
1. Return to the Transfer screen:
a. Tap the BACK button on the Method screen (Figure 2.40).
b. Tap Apply, SAVE, or Discard in the warning message that appears.
Apply – This option is recommended. It loads the settings to instrument memory
for use in dispensing runs, but does not save them to a method file.
SAVE – Saves the settings to a method file and loads them to instrument memory
for use in dispensing runs. See page 72 for more information.
Discard – Discards any changes that were made.
