5.5.1 Advanced liquid transfer controls
Each of these controls affects transferring fluids from a source plate to a
destination plate. They are global in scope, and affect the execution of each
liquid transfer protocol that is run. Each setting has a default state enforced
when the Echo software is launched or restarted. User choices are not
stored or remembered upon shutdown.
Survey interval: Select the interval
between source plate surveys by choosing
a value from the P

drop-down list.
The default setting of "every 1 plate" causes the source plate to be
surveyed every time a new source or destination plate is loaded. A survey
can take anywhere from 60 seconds to 2 minutes.
A survey will always be performed when a new source plate is loaded.
