12.3.3 High Meniscus Liquids

12-6 Technical Manual for sunrise RC, TW, TS, TC, BC, 6F No. T 137 302 Rev No. 1.1
When measuring liquids that produce a high meniscus, the measured optical
density can be incorrect as the instrument normally measures the optical density
at three positions in the well and uses this average measured optical density as
the optical density for the well.
Normal Mode
3 positions, 8 measurements per position.
Positions are 0.4375 mm apart.
Accuracy Mode
3 positions, 55 measurements per position.
Positions are 0.4375 mm apart.
