not listed in the Inbox on the instrument
The configuration
in the plate file
does not match
the configuration
of the instrument
to which you sent
the plate file. For
example, if a 50-
cm capillary array
is installed on
the instrument, the
Inbox does not
accept a plate
file that specifies
a 36‑cm capillary
array.

files library on the instrument. For more
information, see “About the Inbox on the
instrument” on page 42.
