4.2.1 Well Plate View - Loading a Well Plate
Directly after the program start, the well plate view section is empty. This changes after loading
a well plate into the program. Loading a well plate is obligatory to perform measurements on
oocytes. Without loading, you will not be able to move the measuring head into a well and or
an oocyte to perform recordings.
There are three different ways to load a well plate:
1. Creating a new empty well plate
Chose "New Empty Plate" from the file menu to create and load a new well plate.
The well plate will be stored in the "Roboocyte2/Plates" folder.
