C. Selecting Reference Wells (Absorbance Mode Only) - Promega E8051 Technical Manual

9.C. Selecting Reference Wells (Absorbance Mode Only)

Reference wells are optional in absorbance mode. The detection mode needs to
be set to Absorbance to enable this feature. Touch a well to toggle between
selected, deselected and reference (Figure 20). Reference wells must be selected
individually. It is not possible to select by column or row.
Readings taken from Reference wells are used as a blank. If more than one
well is selected as a Reference, an average of the values from these wells is
applied to each of the readings.
