Manually Adjusting Dispense Speed - Agena BIOSCIENCE MassARRAY Nanodispenser RS1000 User Manual

Manually Adjusting Dispense Speed

You can manually adjust dispense speed instead of using the auto tune function by
enabling Volume Check but not Auto Tuning. The instrument will begin dispensing (the
first 24 wells if 24-pin format, the first 6 wells if 6-pin format, or the first plate well if 1-pin
format) and capture images of the dispensed droplets. It will then pause dispensing to
allow you to examine the dispensed volumes and adjust the dispense speed if necessary.
To manually adjust dispense speed:
1. Uncheck the box under Auto Tuning.
2. Ensure that the Enable box under Volume Check is checked.
3. Enter an upper and lower limit for dispense volume.
