The Validation Results dialog box includes tabs for each type of validation. If
you selected and performed All Validations, all the tabs will be available.
Otherwise, only the tab for the validation you performed (Optics, Fluidics,
Reporter, or Classify) will be available and displayed.

Click Create Report to generate and display a Microsoft

Excel spreadsheet

showing the validation results. Note that Microsoft Excel 2000 or higher must
be installed on your computer for this function to work. (Excel comes
preinstalled on all computers supplied with the Bio-Plex suspension array
system.)

See the Bio-Plex Validation Kit 4.0 Instruction Manual for interpreting the
results of a validation run.

Validation Log

Each validation run is recorded in the Validation Log. This log is stored in a
secure database file called bioplexdata.mdb. By default, this file is saved in
the main Bio-Plex Manager application folder on your computer.

NOTE: If you have an earlier version of Bio-Plex Manager, installing version
4.0 or later will copy the data from your existing database (bioplex.mdb) into
the new database. A copy of your old database will remain in the application
folder.

To view this log, go to the View menu and select Validation Log.
