Optimum Orientation sensor offset
Initial Orientation sensor offset
Measure A and B of your microplate.
Initial Orientation sensor offset = (A/2) + B = ___________ mm
Jog distance
Jog distance = Z
initial
– Z
adjusted
= _________ mm
Adjusted Orientation sensor offset
Adjusted Orientation sensor offset =
Initial Orientation sensor Jog distance = _______________ mm
Orientation threshold
In graphical display area on the
Controls
page, click
Stacker
, and then choose
Move to
Sensor
. On the
Jog/Teach
tab, find the highest notch reading in the
Notch Sensors
area.
Repeat this step for each stack.
Note:
Notches have lower readings than corners.
Highest Notch Sensors readings
Record the highest notch reading for each stack.
Highest reading among all stacks (Notch
highest
): ____________
Lowest Corner readings
Record the lowest corner reading for each stack.
Lowest reading among all stacks (Corner
lowest
): ____________
Orientation threshold
Orientation threshold = (Notch
highest
+ Corner
lowest
)/2 = __________
