Assay Plate Type
Assay Plate Type determines the alignment of the read head with respect
to the microplate. For 384-well microplates, it is important that the
correct assay plate be chosen to match the microplate that the reader
will read. If the microplate you are using is not listed in the selection, a
new plate type can be added under the Plate menu option

Assay Plate Types
If you go back and change this setting after you have selected settings
that follow (for example, Compound Source, Compound and Tip
Columns) the earlier settings might be automatically reconfigured to
reflect the new assay plate type and well layout. Be sure to check any
earlier assignments to ensure they remain correct.
Note:
If you change the Assay Plate Type setting for a Plate section, the
well assignments stored in the previous template are discarded. The
previously created groups remain, however, so that you can select new
wells and apply existing groups to them. The Assay Plate Type setting
takes precedence over all other fluidics module settings and affect the
correctness of other settings.
