3 Operating Procedures
3.6 Other Software Settings
There are other software settings that deal with data calculation and display. In contrast
to Instrument Setup parameters, these data settings can be configured before, during, or
after running an experiment. These include:
•
Setting reduction parameters
•
Setting data display parameters
•
Using the Template Editor
Molecular Devices strongly recommends that you define a template and set the
reduction and display parameters prior to reading the assay plate, because these
parameters determine how data is displayed and analyzed. You can set up or modify
templates, reduction and display parameters after collection, but this may be complicated
or confusing.
Refer to your SOFTmax PRO User’s Manual for information about using the software
to continue to prepare for an experiment.
Note:
While it is strongly recommended that you use the Template Editor before running
an experiment, it is not strictly necessary. The values received from the instrument are
raw fluorescence, and are not affected by settings in the Template Editor.
