MSAroboticPlate-class: Class '"MSAroboticPlate"'
In llrs/OSAT: OSAT: Optimal Sample Assignment Tool

Description Extends Methods Predefined objects See Also Examples

A class store layout information of MSA robotic loader plate.

Class "gArray", directly.

map.to.MSA: signature(x = "data.frame", y = "MSAroboticPlate"): Return a data frame that assign samples (represented by the input data frame) to MSA robotic plate sequentially.
map.to.MSA: signature(x = "gExperimentSetup", y = "MSAroboticPlate"): Return a data frame that assign samples from an gExperimentSetup object to MSA robotic plate.
show: signature(object = "MSAroboticPlate"): Shows the layout of the plate.

MSA4.plate: A predeined object of class MSAroboticPlate that represent a 96 position plate.

BeadChip96ToMSA4MAPMap: The loading order a MSA4 robotic loader used to load BeadChips.
