Procedure
To prepare the workspace:
1. Using the Browser toolbar, create a new specimen in MyExperiment and rename it FourColorBeads.
2. Create two tubes for the FourColorBeads specimen. Rename the tubes Beads_001 and Beads_002.
3. Expand the Global Worksheets folder in MyExperiment to access the default global worksheet, and rename
the worksheet MyData.
4. On the MyData worksheet, create the following plots for previewing the data:
l
FSC vs SSC

FITC vs PE
l
FITC vs PerCP

FITC vs APC
Applying saved application settings to a new experiment
When applications settings are applied to an experiment, the cytometer settings are updated with the
parameters included in the application settings, optimized PMT voltages, threshold settings, area scaling
factors, and window extension values.
To apply saved application settings to your experiment:
1. Right-click the experiment-level Cytometer Settings and select Application Settings > Apply.
2. In the Application Settings catalog, select the application settings file you saved previously and click Apply.
If the parameters are not the same, a mismatch dialog opens.
