The command "Robo2.ShowStandardDialog();" opens a window after starting the script listing
all predefined variables. All values can be changed here, but again changes are not permanent
and only valid for a single script execution. If you want to change values "permanently" you have
to change them in the script text.

The next section in the script - Initialization - uses some of the predefined variables.

After defining variables and their respective values, the "oocyte loop" can be initiated.

2.2 The Oocyte Loop

The most basic function of the Roboocyte is to move the plate carrier "from one well to the
other", or more correct to move selected wells exactly below the measuring head. This movement
between well 1 and 95 is initiated and controlled by the so-called "oocyte loop", a for-loop in java
script.
