Data Analysis Window

During data analysis, changing the way the data are displayed by changing the contents of the
wells in the Plate Editor never changes the fluorescence data that were collected from each
well during the run. Once the module collects fluorescence data, you cannot delete those data
but you can choose to remove data from view and analysis.

To change the content of wells after a run, select one of the following options from the Plate
Setup
button at the top of the Data Analysis window:

Edit/View Plate. Open the Plate Editor to make manual changes to the layout

Replace Plate file. Select a previously saved plate file to replace the current plate

layout
