Compound and Tip Columns Automatically Assigned
The SoftMax Pro Software automatically enters information in the
Compound & Tip Columns window taking into consideration the number
of transfers and the Wells to Read section already selected. The software
assumes fluid will be aspirated from the compound plate starting with
the first available column. Aspirated fluid will then be dispensed to the
first available column indicated in the Wells to Read selection.
The software assumes the following conditions:
•
All columns in the Wells to Read selection will receive fluid.
•
The fluids are transferred from left to right. The read-transfer-
read sequence in each column is initiated only after the previous
column’s read-transfer-read event is completed (the total read
time for that column).
•
The fluid transfer targets are cumulative from transfer to
transfer. That is, the second transfer’s targets start with the next
available clean tip and untargeted compound column rather than
reusing tips and compound columns targeted by the preceding
fluid transfer.
•
Each fluid transfer will use a new tip.
The software assumes that all of the columns in the Wells to Read area
will receive fluid during the initial transfer. The Tips Target grid is filled
left to right starting with the first available tip column and incrementing
the tip target by one until all columns in the Wells to Read selection have
been filled.
