Operation

The plastic microplate alignment guide (P/N 9891-080) should be 

placed on the scan surface so the corner of the guide contacts the 

front, left corner of the bezel surrounding the scan surface. Push the 

guide into the corner until it contacts the bezel on both the front and 

left sides. Put the microplate on the scanning surface and slide it into 

place until it contacts both the front and left side of the alignment 

guide. The first well in the first row (A1) should be toward the back 

and left side of the alignment guide as shown below. Microplates can 

be scanned one at a time using the browser interface or by choosing
