Handling inserts in <strong>Freedom</strong> <strong>EVOware</strong> Plus<br />

Slot1=Insert:Integer:0<br />

Replace “labware_type” by the labware type of the destination plate (replace<br />

space characters by underscores “_”) and append the string “_LT”.<br />

For example Name=caco_baseplate_LT<br />

Save the file after making your changes. Configuration files are protected with<br />

checksums. Accordingly, you must now repair the checksum as follows:<br />

• Quit <strong>Freedom</strong> <strong>EVOware</strong> and start the Configuration Tool with Start > All<br />

Programs > Tecan > <strong>EVOware</strong> > Configure. You will be warned that the<br />

checksum is invalid and you will be asked if you want to repair the checksum.<br />

Click Yes. Then Click Exit and re-start <strong>Freedom</strong> <strong>EVOware</strong>. Alternatively, repair<br />

the checksum using the Validate Configuration tool (see A.9.2 “Validate<br />

Configuration Tool”, A-36).<br />

• You must then quit <strong>Freedom</strong> <strong>EVOware</strong>, un-load the drivers and restart<br />

<strong>Freedom</strong> <strong>EVOware</strong>. To do this, choose Exit, unload drivers in the File menu.<br />

This ensures that the driver configuration files (ini files) will be read again<br />

when <strong>Freedom</strong> <strong>EVOware</strong> is re-started.<br />

Note: You must also restart <strong>Freedom</strong> <strong>EVOware</strong> and the drivers each time you edit<br />

the insert plate labware, since the process of editing sets the insert attribute of the<br />

labware to “1” again.<br />

Moving the insert with the RoMa_SwapInsert command<br />

The following example shows how to use the RoMa_SwapInsert command to<br />

move an insert from the insert plate caco-1 (labware type caco) to the insert plate<br />

base-2 (labware type caco_baseplate) before pipetting. This is done by adding<br />

the RoMa_SwapInsert command as a custom pre-action to the LiHa process step.<br />

For this example, the type of the source and destination labware must be<br />

different.<br />

The following figure shows the worktable and the lower Infopad with the<br />

destination plate selected:<br />

the LiHa process step:<br />
