Occasionally, you may want to edit the plate types available in the plate type library.
When you edit a plate to the Plate Type Library, you will need to do two things:
Define well properties.
Define drop properties.
You have placed your microplate on microplate station 1.
You have installed a low volume (LV) tip into the LV tip attachment 8.
You have the microplate data sheet that came with your plate.
Note: Editing Plate Types is only available for microplates and not available for system plates.
In the Plate Type Library, right-click the plate you want to edit and select Edit Plate Types. The Plate Type Editor dialog box appears.
