Assigning assay rack types
A default assay rack type is defined in each Assay Parameter Set. This default assay rack type is
automatically displayed in the “Assay” slots in the
Assay Rack(s)
screen. For some assay rack
types, the assay rack can only be changed to an assay rack that uses the same adapter type. If
Assay Parameter Sets have been assigned that have different default rack types, no rack type will
be specified in the corresponding assay slot. All rack types that are specified in one or more of
the assays are listed under
Default
, and all other assay racks that can be used are listed under
Other .
To change the assay rack type or to assign an assay rack type, follow the steps below.
1. Select a rack type from those listed on the right. The up and down buttons can be used to
scroll through the list.
2. The assigned rack type is then displayed in the selected “Assay” slot.
Important
The list only displays rack types that have the same assay rack format.
