To specify a sample, wash, or fraction location, specify its position on the container (plate or tray) and, if necessary, the position of the container in the sampling module.
NOTE
The format of the location address depends on the sampler type, the data system, and the version of the data system.
Only one of the following formats may be available.
For containers that support linear addressing (1, 2, 3, ...), you specify the location on the container by the position number in the format Vial <#>. Usually, <#> is also sufficient.
Examples:
Vial 1
1
For containers that support row and column addressing (A1, A2, A3, ...), you specify the location on the container by the row character and the column number.
Examples:
A1
A-1
To specify the container, add a prefix to the location address. One or both of the following prefixes are valid:
Classic numbering has the format P<#>.
Modern numbering has the format D<#><Position>, where <Position> is F = drawer front, M = drawer middle, or B = drawer back.
Examples:
P1-Vial 1
D1F-Vial 1
P1-1
D1F-1
P1-A1 or P1-A-1 or P1A1
D1F-A1 or D1F-A-1 or D1FA1
NOTE
The preceding examples show the default "-" separator and prefixes. Your data system might instead use a different separator and have a mapping for the prefixes.
To specify the module in the cluster, add a prefix to the location resp. container address.
Examples:
1-Vial 1
2-Vial 1
1-P1-A1
2-P1-A1
1-D1F-A1
2-D1F-A1
