Venus 6 Libraries. HSLDevLib and HSLDeckVisualize

Does anyone know any solution to this?

We are interested in potentially switching to the new Standard Run Control from Legacy Run Control on venus 6, however we are having issues with two Hamilton Libraries. HSLDevLib and HSLDeckVisualize.

Objects created with the Dev library do not appear on the deck in Standard Run Control.

Objects that have been instructed to flash/appear with the Deck library do not appear.

Additionally, we do not even see sequence positions register as used when pipetting occurs in Standard Run Control with our methods.

Is this the expected behavior of these libraries in Standard Run Control? Are there updated versions of these libraries? Are there alternative libraries?

Hi Kalpesh,

The Dev library functions to add/remove labware during runtime works, but the graphics aren’t updated in the new UI system view. The issue is limited to the visuals.

For the deck visualize library, this issue has been reported and is being addressed in VENUS 6.3.

As these are default libraries, there aren’t alternatives that I am aware of and any updates would coincide with updated versions of VENUS.

Thanks,

Eric

Hi Eric,

Any idea on when 6.3 will be available? The labware not showing with deck visualize is the main reason we haven’t been fully upgrading to Venus 6. Glad to hear you are working on it!

Thanks,
Colin

Estimated by the end of Q1, 2025. We have an early build we’re starting to test with so I am hopeful we’ll be able to meet that estimate.
