contrasting colors. See Table 2 for the density dot plot color legend.
The density dot plot allows visual elimination of data values
determined to be insignificant to the display. Luminex recommends
you collect your data in density dot plot mode to observe all
collected events. Post acquisition does not display decaying dot plot;
it’s only a real-time function.
Status Bar
The Status Bar displays information about the Command State,
Device Status, Device Activity, Laser Status, Total Events per

urgency of each item’s status. Device Activity uses no color coding.
