8.3.3 Manipulator / Set Home Out Position
This allows the user to select the current position as the home out
position. After selecting this option a message will appear asking if you
are sure that you want to do this. Once selected, the current position is
stored as the Home Out position.
8.3.4 Manipulator / Set Home In Offset
This allows you to apply an offset of between -10 mm and +10 mm (in
micron steps). This is useful for instance; when controlling a
manipulator, having changed a pipette and wanting to return close to the
sample position without colliding into the sample. The manipulator will
return to the position prior to Home Out less the Offset distance.
