Spectra File (composite)
Selecting this checkbox causes QuantaSmart to generate a single, composite,
ASCII spectra file that contains all of the samples counted in the assay. Each
individual sample spectrum is appended to the end of this composite file as it is
counted so that you end up with all of the sample data in it.
The data file format is similar to that created for individual spectrum files as
shown in, with count parameters for a single sample in a header and the channel
data listed serially after it. The protocol number, sample number and sample
repeat value precede each parameter header to identify the individual sample
spectrums within the file.
Enter a name for the file in the box. The composite spectra file will be created in
the Output Data Path (Raw Data Path for Replay if used from Replay)
identified in the Data Paths window.
