Instant Imaging

Instant Imaging enables you to image or manually inspect a plate without a barcode label. This option is specific to ROCK IMAGER 2, and the Benchtop versions of SONICC and FRAP.

When you create an instant imaging session, ROCK MAKER creates a special folder for your experiment and images called Instant Imaging. After the imaging process, you can use ROCK MAKER to move the experiment file to a more appropriate location in the Explorer tree.
