The following describes Spectrosofts unique control and manipulation
features for the various wells, data displays, blanking, blocking, and
additional optional plate screen features.
Setting identifiers for Wells
(Well I.D.'s)
Setting markers (names) for certain wells helps
the user identify various wells for their unique
characteristics:
[1] If a user wants to identify certain wells as
"Serum" or "Reagent", or a "Patient" for example,
double-click on the desired well and Spectrosoft
displays the Well ID change dialog box at the
bottom of the screen.
[2] Simply type in the desired label, name, or
standard and then click on OK.
Templates
[3] Once a plate is laid out with it's various
characteristic well identifiers, blanks, standards,
etc., it can then be saved as a "Template" by
saving it in the database by some assigned test
number and or name. Further usage of the saved
"Master Template" can then be retrieved, read
and then saved as another test number and
name, saving the original "Clean" template for
further use and or replication.
A word of caution on saving data; since in a very
short period of time, a user can amass an
extremely large base of data, a user or lab
manager should create a management naming
scheme and or a log to sort and retrieve data to
eliminate time wasted searching and manual
verifying. Just like word processing,
spreadsheets or other database programs, users
save data in unique "Directories" specific to their
data such as "C:\Letters, Fax's, etc. to sort the
various data as to its use. This is most helpful
when data collection expands into several types
of assays or projects.
