Thermo Scientific™ Multidrop™ Pico 1 Digital Dispenser Operating manual
Thermo Fisher Scientific
The current plate is displayed in the Well plate grid. However, the tools
and functions of the Main Operating Window are not available.
Nevertheless, you can move your cursor over the wells on the monitor
screen to see the well summary information. Once dispensing begins
the Well plate grid shows the dispense progress as fluids are dispensed
into the wells.
This box prompts you to load the plate and then click Loaded (or F6)
once you have done so.
Note
If the plate load sequence is not strictly sequential, Note plate
number messages will be displayed as a reminder to load the correct
plate.
If the plate has an identification code you want to track, scan the bar
code on the plate using a USB bar code reader attached to your
computer, or enter its identification number manually into the Plate ID
(optional) field.
Note
If Require and validate plate ID option has been selected in
Run Settings, you must enter a Plate ID and re-enter that ID each time
the plate is re-loaded so it can be validated.
