Deck Geometry Correction
Chapter 13
If the MANTIS is dispensing drops that aren’t aligning with your plate drop locations, you
may need to tune the MANTIS dispense location settings using the Drop Alignment Wizard
and the reference plate.
In the instructions that follow, you will learn how to tune four points on the MANTIS plate
holder: A1, A12, H1, and H12. The MANTIS then interpolates these locations to determine
each remaining drop location on a plate.
Prerequisites
● You have the reference plate that was included in the MANTIS accessory kit.
● You have either a Low Volume or High Volume chip.
● You have a pipette tip filled with colored water.
● You have enabled the Deck Geometry Correction Menu option.
Correcting the Deck Geometry:
1. Attach a chip to the MANTIS hand.
2. Place the pipette tip in the pipette tip input on the chip.
Important: This instruction is intended for advanced users only! Doing something
