Purpose of the
ROI Calibration
A regions of interest (ROI) calibration maps the positions of the wells on the sample
block so that the software can associate increases in fluorescence during a run with
specific wells of the plate. Because the instrument uses a set of optic filters to distinguish
the fluorescence emissions gathered during runs, you must generate a calibration image
for each individual filter to account for minor differences in the optical path.
