Imaging a Plate with SONICC Benchtop

This topic explains how to image a plate from start to finish using the SONICC Benchtop version of ROCK IMAGER. If you are not using ROCK MAKER to track conditions, or you want to image a plate that does not have a barcode, please use the Instant Imaging feature.

 

Prerequisites

 

Imaging a Plate

  1. Tell SONICC you want to load a plate. On the Imager menu, click Load/Unload Plate.

  2. Place the plate on the imager hand. If you're using a barcode, the barcode must face towards you and should be affixed opposite the A1 position.

The Imager Hand of SONICC

  1. Tell SONICC to bring the plate inside in the imager. On the Imager menu, click Load/Unload Plate.

  2. Tell SONICC to scan the barcode.

  3. Choose from the following options:

  4. When your plates have been imaged at least once, you can view the resulting images. For basic help, see Viewing and Scoring Images in ROCK MAKER. Otherwise, refer to the ROCK MAKER help files.

Note: If the SONICC laser is defective during imaging sessions, the system will automatically pause the SONICC imaging and continue with visible imaging as scheduled. The system will keep all skipped SONICC inspections in the imaging queue until the laser is repaired, at which time the inspections will be run automatically.
