Select a well on the plate diagram to view the spectral results of the associated
capillary.
Status— Passed (dark green), Selected (light green), Borrowed/failed
(tan). If y
ou override a capillary, the status is set to
.
1
Well A01—Passed
2
Well B06—Selected
3
Well D04—Borrowed, failed, or overridden
4.
If necessary
, borrow calibration data from another capillary:
a.
Select a failed capillary.
a.
Click Override.
b.
Select a passing capillary from which to borrow the calibration.
5.
Evaluate the spectral calibration prole for each capillary. Ensure that the prole
meets the criteria listed in the following table.
