16.3.2 Carousel - PreReturnPlateByBC Command
The PreReturnPlateByBC command moves the carousel’s plate handler to the
carousel transfer position where it waits for the RoMa to bring the labware which
you want to return to the carousel. It is used together with the
ReturnPlateByBarcode command.
The following sequence of commands must be used to return labware to its
orginal position in the carousel:
• Carousel - PreReturnPlateByBC
• RoMa - Transfer Labware
• Carousel - ReturnPlateByBarcode
The Carousel - EndAccess command is not required in this case.
See 16.3.4 “Carousel - ReturnPlateByBarcode Command”, 16-4 for more
information.
16.3.3 Carousel - ReturnPlate Command
The ReturnPlate command returns labware from the carousel transfer position to
the specified tower and position in the carousel.
