When writing a protocol, you must inform the Protocol API about the pipettes you will be using on your robot. The :py:meth:`.ProtocolContext.load_instrument` function provides this information and returns an :py:class:`.InstrumentContext` object.

API Load Names
--------------
==============

The pipette's API load name (``instrument_name``) is the first parameter of the ``load_instrument()`` method. It tells your robot which attached pipette you're going to use in a protocol. The tables below list the API load names for the currently available Flex and OT-2 pipettes.

See the OT-2 Pipette Generations section below if you're using GEN1 pipettes on an OT-2. The GEN1 family includes the P10, P50, and P300 single- and multi-channel pipettes, along with the P1000 single-chanel model.

Loading Flex 1- and 8-Channel Pipettes

======================================

This code sample loads a Flex 1-Channel Pipette in the left mount and a Flex 8-Channel Pipette in the right mount. Both pipettes are 1000 µL. Each pipette uses its own 1000 µL tip rack.

If you're writing a protocol that uses the Flex Gripper, you might think that this would be the place in your protocol to declare that. However, the gripper doesn't require ``load_instrument``! Whether your gripper requires a protocol is determined by the presence of :py:meth:`.ProtocolContext.move_labware` commands. See :ref:`moving-labware` for more details.

Loading a Flex 96-Channel Pipette
---------------------------------
=================================

This code sample loads the Flex 96-Channel Pipette. Because of its size, the Flex 96-Channel Pipette requires the left *and* right pipette mounts. You cannot use this pipette with 1- or 8-Channel Pipette in the same protocol or when these instruments are attached to the robot. To load the 96-Channel Pipette, specify its position as ``mount='left'`` as shown here:

Adding Tip Racks
----------------
================

The ``load_instrument()`` method includes the optional argument ``tip_racks``. This parameter accepts a list of tip rack labware objects, which lets you to specify as many tip racks as you want. The advantage of using ``tip_racks`` is twofold. First, associating tip racks with your pipette allows for automatic tip tracking throughout your protocol. Second, it removes the need to specify tip locations in the :py:meth:`.InstrumentContext.pick_up_tip` method. For example, let's start by loading loading some labware and instruments like this::
