NOTE
You can open multiple data files, but you cannot mix DNA, Protein,
RNA, Glycan, Protein Charge Variant, or gDNA data files in the
same workspace.
Import Data File - Opens a saved DNA, Protein, RNA, Glycan,
Protein Charge Variant, or gDNA data file for a specific microplate.
If the 21 CFR Part 11 option is installed, opens the CDR Manager
Window. A graphical representation of the microplate displays.
(Protein, Glycan, and Protein Charge Variant assays are only
supported on LabChip GX II instruments.) Data files can be .GXD
(LabChip GX) or .CLA (LabChip HT software).

Workspace Menu
The Workspace menu contains the following commands:

Save Plate - Saves the plate data file (*.gxd). Changes to the
analysis settings (in the Assay Analysis Window) are saved at the

Assay Analysis Window to go back to any previously saved
settings. Plate data files are automatically saved when the
Workspace is saved.
