Dispense task parameters
About this topic
The Dispense task dispenses liquid into a microplate or reservoir. This topic
describes the task parameters.
To run the Dispense task, see “Performing a task using Bravo Diagnostics” on
page 100.
Parameter descriptions
The Dispense task has the following parameters.
Parameter Description
Empty tips The option to empty all liquid from the tips instead
of using the dispense volume specification.
Volume (µL) The volume of liquid to be dispensed from each
pipette tip.
Blowout volume (µL) Specifies the volume of air to dispense after the
main volume has been dispensed while the tips
are still in the wells.
Typically, the blowout volume is the same as the
pre-aspirate volume.
Note: Blowout only occurs in the last quadrant
dispensed for a given Dispense task.
Liquid class The liquid class associated with this liquid.
Distance from well bottom
(0–100 mm)
The distance between the end of the pipette tips
and the well bottoms during the Dispense task.
If you specify dynamic tip retraction, this is the
starting distance.
IMPORTANT The labware definition must be
accurate and the teachpoint must be precise in
order for the system to position the tips at the
correct distance from the well bottom.
