10.3.2 MCA96 Dispense Parameters
Freedom EVOware uses these parameters for the MCA96 pipetting head when
dispensing or mixing.
Fig. 10-8 MCA96 Dispense parameters
The parameters of this dialog box are as follows (some of the parameters must be
specified separately for single pipetting mode and multi pipetting mode):
Dispense Speed
Specify the dispense speed in µl/s. A high speed (400-600 µl/s) is needed to
achieve a proper free dispense. Contact dispense requires a lower speed (in
the same range as the aspirate speed).
Breakoff Speed
You cannot specify a breakoff speed for the MCA96.
Delay
Specify the delay after dispensing.
Trailing Airgap after each Dispense
You can automatically aspirate a trailing airgap after each dispense operation
in order to avoid droplets forming on the tip. The trailing airgap parameters are
specified in the Aspirate dialog box.
Use Pinch Valve
The MCA96 does not have a pinch valve.
Use Liquid Detection
The MCA96 does not support liquid level detection (or emulated liquid level
detection) for dispensing.
