Adding a Purchased Screen Lot

When you purchase a screen lot for use in experiments, you must enter information about the lot into ROCK MAKER.

To enter information about a purchased screen lot:

Create a new screen, or open an existing screen.
Click the Lots button in the Info group on the View tab in the Screen contextual tab set.
Right-click the Screen Lots table and select New Lot. A new row is inserted.
Use the following table as a guide for entering information about the new screen lot:

Field	Description
Lot Number	ROCK MAKER automatically assigns this number.
Comment	Click in the Comment column to type a comment about the screen lot.
Container	Click in the Container column and select the appropriate container type. These are defined on the Containers screen.
Dispense Volume (μL)	When entering info about a purchased lot, this column does not apply. (When dispensing a screen lot, this is the volume to dispense into the screen lot.)
Current Volume (μL)	Click in the new screen lot’s Current Volume box and type a value. This will typically be 1500 μL for a purchased screen lot.

If you already have the conditions available in an .XML file, import the file. See Importing Screen Conditions for instructions.
If you do not have a file that describes the contents of the screen lot, you must enter the conditions by drawing layers on the Canvas tab.
Print a label for the screen lot and place it on the screen lot for identification purposes.
To print a label for a screen lot, right-click on it and select Print Labels.
Save your changes by selecting Save from the Application Menu button.
