epBlue
Software for creating and administering applications and labware. The epMotion is controlled using the
software. The software includes a user administration system. Modular extension of epBlue is possible.
With the epBlue ID module you can track samples during the application. The labware is labeled with IDs
for this purpose. The sample tracking is documented automatically.
epT.I.P.S. Motion
epMotion pipette tips. Only epT.I.P.S.® Motion can be used on the epMotion. epT.I.P.S.® Motions are
available with or without a filter.
F
Filling volume
Maximum liquid volume of a labware. The epMotion uses the gripper to transport the labware up to the
filling volume. The epMotion aspirates liquid from the labware up to the filling volume. The filling volume is
higher than the working volume.
G
Gripper
Tool that transports labware.
H
Height adapter
Adapter for low labware. The height differences among the labware will be offset to decrease the tool
holder paths, thereby decreasing the run time of the application as well.
HEPA air filter
Air filter. The air filter prevents particles such as dust and germs from the environment entering the
epMotion work room.
I
ID
Character string which is used by the
epBlue ID module to identify the labware.
Input list
ID list with information on source labware. The input list contains the IDs of the source positions. epBlue
creates an input list for each source labware for which ID tracking is active.
Intermediate labware
Rack or plate with intermediate positions.
Intermediate location
Position in the labware that is both source and destination of liquid transfers.
