Labcyte Echo 550 - Plate Specification Editor

Echo Liquid Handler Software 5-23
5.2.2 Plate specification editor
Source plates require very exacting specifications to accurately transfer
nanoliter volumes; therefore, they are defined specifically for the Echo
instruments and tested at Labcyte (Echo-qualified). For this reason, new
source plates cannot be defined by the user. For existing source plates, only
the barcode location can be edited (see Figure 5.25). Contact Labcyte to
add more source plates. See “Contact information” on page 7-1.
Note: In Echo application software, such as Echo Dose-Response and
Echo Cherry Pick, (version 1.5 or later), existing source plates can be
copied and renamed, to allow for more specific identification for
application workflows, and then imported into Echo software.
However, other plate parameters still cannot be changed--except for
barcode location.
Figure 5.25 Plate Specification for Source Plate
Source plate specifications cannot be removed from the Echo liquid handler
softwareor the PLATE NAME LIST. All source plate specifications can be used
as destination plate specifications; however, no user-defined destination
plate specification can be used as a source plate specification.
