Assigning Imaging Settings to Drops and Region of Interest

All plates generated by an experiment are imaged using the imaging settings you specified when you created the experiment. Once a plate has been imaged, however, you can override the imaging settings used to image each drop. Your changes will take effect starting with the next imaging session.

A drop can include several regions (also called regions of interest). Regions are defined by using Images Tools.

 

Assigning Imaging Settings to a Drop

  1. Click the Drops tab in the Images contextual tab set.
  2. In the Image Settings group, select a new imaging setting from the Drop list.

 

Assigning Imaging Settings to a Region

By default, the imaging settings assigned to a drop will be used to image the drop's regions of interest. You can override this default setting for each region. When you modify the region's imaging settings, changes will take effect starting with the next imaging session.

  1. Click the Drops tab in the Images contextual tab set.
  2. In the Image Settings group, select a new imaging setting from the Region list.

 

Enabling/Disabling Drop Imaging

You can turn imaging for a drop on or off by right-clicking on the drop in the Canvas or Drop tab and selecting Disable Imaging. A red slash button (see buttons outlined in green) indicates that imaging has been disabled for a certain drop.
