Define General
Tab Information
You define the following options on the General tab.
Default Batch Directory. Names the default directory to store
batch information. Click the browse button and navigate to the
desired folder (directory).
Current User. Enter the name of the current user or operator. The
name appears on reports.
Analysis Display Digits. Use this feature to customize the
number of digits shown on the Data Analysis dialog box and printed
reports. The data is stored with its full precision (that is, including all
digits), but the data appears as requested. The default analysis digit
display is for two digits to show in the analysis.
Display Confirmation Screens. Enables confirmation dialog
boxes to display when you initiate many maintenance commands. If
you disable the confirmation screen display option, the confirmation
screens remain for commands initiated from the Home tab.
Enable Raw Data Storage. Select this feature to save bead event
data that is acquired while processing batches in the database. The
system defaults to Enable Raw Data Storage. Raw data storage is
necessary particularly when you use file mode (Replay Batch).
Report Raw Fluorescence. Select this feature to enable the
median fluorescence intensity (MFI) display to appear on the
Analyte Report. This feature was previously used to display MFI
values on all reports. In the Luminex IS 2.3 software, the only report
affected by this selection is the Analyte Report. All others are hard
coded by the system.
