    Class: Real
    Unit: 1 second

    DispenseMixRates

    The speed at which liquid is aspirated and dispensed in a liquid after a dispense.
    Format: Multiple
    Class: Real
    Unit: 1 microliter per second
    Programmatic Pattern: Microliter Hold[GreaterP[0 ----------]] Second

    DispensePositions

    The location from which liquid should be dispensed. Top will dispense DispensePositionOffset below the Top of the container, Bottom will dispense DispensePositionOffset above the Bottom of the container, LiquidLevel will dispense DispensePositionOffset below the liquid level of the sample in the container, and TouchOff will touch the bottom of the container before moving the specified DispensePositionOffset above the bottom of the container to start dispensing the sample.
    Format: Multiple
    Class: Expression
    Programmatic Pattern: PipettingPositionP

    DispensePositionOffsets

    The distance from the center of the well that liquid will dispensed. When specifying a Z Offset, the Z Offset is calculated either as the height below the top of the well, the height above the bottom of the well, or the height below the detected liquid level, depending on value of the DispensePosition option (Top|Bottom|LiquidLevel). When an DispenseAngle is specified, the DispensePositionOffset is measured in the frame of reference of the tilted labware (so that wells that are further away from the pivot point of the tilt are in the same frame of reference as wells that are close to the pivot point of the tilt).
    Format: Multiple
    Class: Expression
    Programmatic Pattern: GreaterEqualP[0 Millimeter] | {DistanceP, DistanceP, GreaterEqualP[0 Millimeter]}

    DispenseAngles

    The angle that the destination container will be tilted during the dispensing of liquid. The container is pivoted on its left edge when tilting occurs.
    Format: Multiple
    Class: Real
    Unit: 1 degree
    Programmatic Pattern: RangeP[0 AngularDegree, 10 AngularDegree, 1 AngularDegree]

    CorrectionCurves

    The relationship between a target volume and the corrected volume that needs to be aspirated or dispensed to reach the target volume. The correction curve is derived empirically from the relationship between the target and actual amount of volume transferred when on a specific robotic liquid handler instrument model. It is recommended when building one of these curves to measure the volume of sample transferred gravimetrically to get a more accurate CorrectionCurve. Use the function UploadPipettingMethod to create a new pipetting method for a sample model to have all robotic transfers of this sample model to use the derived CorrectionCurve automatically.
    Format: Multiple
    Class: Expression
    Programmatic Pattern: {{GreaterEqualP[0 Microliter], GreaterEqualP[0 Microliter]}..} | Null

Container Covering

    KeepSourceCovered

    Indicates if the cover on this container should be "peaked" off when transferred into/out of instead of taken off completely when performing Manual Transfers in order to reduce chances of contamination or minimize light exposure. When performing robotic manipulations, this indicates that the container should be re-covered after any manipulation that uncovers it is completed.
    Format: Multiple
    Class: Boolean
    Programmatic Pattern: BooleanP

    ReplaceSourceCovers

    Indicates if the cover on the source container was replaced at the end of the transfer with a new type of cover. If set to False, the previous cover (or a new instance of the previous cover if the previous cover is not reusable) is used to cover the container after the transfer occurs.
    Format: Multiple
    Class: Boolean
    Programmatic Pattern: BooleanP

    SourceCovers

    The new cover that was placed on the source container after the transfer occurs. By default, this option is set to Null which indicates that the previous cover was used.
    Format: Multiple
    Class: Link
    Programmatic Pattern: _Link

    SourceSeptums

    The new septum that was placed on the source container after the transfer occurs. By default, this option is set to Null which indicates that the previous septum was used (if there was previously a septum on the container).
    Format: Multiple
    Class: Link
    Programmatic Pattern: _Link

    SourceStoppers

    The new stopper that was placed on the source container after the transfer occurs. By default, this option is set to Null which indicates that the previous stopper was used (if there was previously a stopper on the container).

    Class: Link
    Programmatic Pattern: _Link

    KeepDestinationCovered

    Indicates if the cover on the source container should be "peaked" off when transferred into/out of instead of taken off completely when performing Manual Transfers in order to reduce chances of contamination or minimize light exposure.
