Module: commands/pipetter/sourceMethods

Methods for assigning which source well to use when a source liquid is available in multiple wells.

Details: Assign source well by group for items without assigned source wells; if multiple syringes need to access the same source, and that source has multiple wells, then possible methods include:

  • pick first one
  • rotate through source wells in order
  • rotate through source wells in order of max volume
  • try a simple geometrical assignment considering whether there are more tips or wells; if that fails, use previous method
  • same as above, but if wells > tips, try starting at first (wells - tips) wells and see which one produces the greatest minimum final volume
