The AM Mix task is designed for aspirating and dispensing fluids through AssayMAP

Control User Guide.
Parameter description
The AM Mix task has the following parameters.
Parameter Description
Volume (µL) The volume of liquid to be mixed in each well.
Pre-aspirate volume (µL) The volume of air to be drawn before the pipette
tips enter the liquid.
Blowout volume (µL) 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.
Liquid class The pipetting velocity and accuracy.
IMPORTANT To ensure consistent pipetting,
always select a liquid class for liquid-handling
tasks.
Override flow rates from
liquid class
The option to override the aspirate and dispense
velocity in the selected liquid class. Selecting this
option enables you to specify a value for the flow
rate without changing the liquid class.
