Loops are added manually using the toolbar. Nesting is modified using the arrows. The current state can be loaded/saved from/to a bin file.

Each loop must have assigned its type. The type must be one of the following: Wellplate, Well, Time-Lapse (Time) , Position, Z-stack (Z) or Channel.

Figure 1212. Defining the loop type

After each and every loop is added a corresponding column is added to the file/frame table. The order of columns reflects the order of loops (and therefore the order of acquisition). After the loop order is defined the table may look as the following example.
