While the destination plate gripper stage inverts the microplate, the
source microplate is surveyed. The Echo liquid handler determines the
fluid composition and fill height, and then calculates the fluid volume in
each well. For aqueous solutions, the fluid volume is an approximation
and may vary depending on protein and surfactant concentrations,
among other factors.
After the source plate survey is done and the destination microplate is
positioned correctly above the source microplate, the liquid transfer
process begins.
Using the data contained in your destination microplate definition, the
protocol definition, and the source microplate survey just performed,
