<Mes.data>: Abs. Data
(See below "Abs. Data Sample")
Measurement wavelength absorbance values are in ASCII encoded
floating point format. Ex. 0.000
Each absorbance value is separated by a space, but in case of minus
value, a minus sign is put instead. Each row of 12 well values is
separated by a comma (,).
<8 rows of 12 wells of abs. values>:
Row1=wells (A1 to A12)"," Row2=wells (B1 to B12)","…
…. Row8=wells (H1 to H12)
13 End of <Mes. data>
"end"
14 Begin of <Ref. data>
"begin", put only for dual wavelength reading
15 <Ref. data>
<Ref.data>: Abs. data, put only for dual wavelength reading
(See below "Abs. Data Sample")
<8 rows of 12 wells of abs. values>:
Row1=wells (A1 to A12)"," Row2=wells (B1 to B12)","…
…. Row8=wells (H1 to H12)
16 End of <Ref. data>
"end", put only for dual wavelength reading
