GENERAL STEPS
While you have several options for performing an analysis, you always
follow the same basic steps:
1.
Select the assay type, using the Filters dialog box (see page 53) .
2.
Set the Algorithm settings (optional).
The mapping algorithms have user-modifiable settings.
3.
Select the cell intensity data for analysis.
You can select the files using a variety of tools:
- The Analyze dialog box (see page 110)
- The Data Tree (see page 114)
- The Batch Analysis window (mapping analyses only)
(see page 117)
4.
Assign names to the generated analysis results files and report files
(optional).
If you don’t assign new names to the analysis results and reports,
previously created results and reports may be over-written. You
have a variety of tools for assigning names to the results and
reports, depending upon the method you used to select the cell
intensity data.
5.
Run the analysis.
An algorithm report is generated for mapping analyses.
You can analyze mapping data from different types of arrays at the
same time.
You may need to alter some settings in certain circumstances. For
more information, see
Changing Algorithm Settings, on page 128
