Description

The number of wells acquired in each row is assumed to be either 0, or equal to the number of wells acquired in every other row. Thus, a pattern like this:

 ---------------------------------
 | x | x | x | x | x | x | x | x |
 ---------------------------------
 | x | x | x | x | x | x | x | x |
 ---------------------------------
 |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |
 ---------------------------------
 | x | x | x | x | x | x | x | x |
 ---------------------------------

is properly handled, but a pattern like this:

 ---------------------------------
 | x | x | x | x | x | x | x | x |
 ---------------------------------
 | x | x | x | x | x | x | x | x |
 ---------------------------------
 |   |   |   |   | x |   |   |   |
 ---------------------------------
 | x | x | x | x | x | x | x | x |
 ---------------------------------

is not - the ScanR reader will return 4 x 8 = 32 series, with 7 of them containing all black images. It should instead return 25 series.
