following exceptions:
• For bar charts, inter-run calibration values, if calculated, will be displayed by clicking
the Inter-run Calibration button
• For heat maps, if the same targets are in the same location on multiple plates, but
with different samples, use the drop-down menu to select a particular plate for
analysis
