10.6 Generating a Validation Report

Procedure

The results from each validation procedure are sent to a validation log in Bio-Plex
Manager software. This log may be used to create individual reports as well as
track multiple validation results over time. Each type of validation is logged into a
separate view: optics validation, fluidics validation, reporter validation and classify
validation. You may maneuver through each of the views using either the main
menu items or the toolbar icons. The specifications for each control number of
the validation kit are also shown in a separate window below the results. If All
Validation
was selected, an entry matching the specific date and time will
appear in each of the validation logs. All of the validation results for a specific
date and time will be included in a created report. The entire log may be printed
by selecting P

A general procedure for creating a report from the validation log is shown below.
For more detailed instructions on the use of the validation log, consult the
