Dynamically Update Container Seek Height

Hi all!

@BrandonBare_Hamilton, is there a nifty way to set properties at the container level? Similar to “ADJUST_SetProperties” of the Labware_Property_Query.smt…but if I’m not mistaking, I think all the property keys listed in the Labware Definition Keys.xlsx are at the rack level?

Specifically, looking to adjust the Seek Height of a container on the fly as the liquid level drops.

Thanks!

Hi Arielle,

I’m certainly no @BrandonBare_Hamilton, but have you tried to enable this function via the System Configuration Editor to do what you’re trying to achieve?

Let us know if this helps!

Ah ha, great point! In all my years, I have actually never used this.

Sidebar, requires sample tracking to be enabled and labware height >40mm. If we meet these requirements for this application, I will definitely give it a go!

Thanks for the great suggestion, Eric!
